Everyone follow journalist @robvato who is dropping knowledge how news orgs have failed to cover Central American refugees justly. And yes, Obama Admin separated children, too. Immigrant groups in #NM were silent then, instead attacked @Gov_Martinez on drivers licenses

NM groups weren’t silent. They were traveling to Artesia and raising awareness as well. Immigration attorneys were giving their time and groups were taking supplies down there. Groups like NM Dream Team were also stopping deportation buses.
Those were rare cases in NM. Most of the time, they were silent on the plight on Central Americans and focused on their provincial, local issues. I covered. I know.

I know as well, and I think you’re reducing the work by calling it provincial. I don’t know if it’s an issue of silence or capacity.

Or perhaps reach out to
@Somosunpueblo and@ELCENTRO_NM to get their perspectives? - 12 more replies
