Yetunde Orungbemi is smitten. The kind of love that gives you butterflies in your stomach.
Yet she faces the prospect of being estranged from her African-American husband and deported back to a country she barely knows.
Welcome to the complexities of the U.S. immigration system.
Orungbemi, who is of Nigerian origin, says the emotional weight of the court case and possibility of separation from her husband is overwhelming.
“It would be a nightmare,” she says. “I’d have to make my way without my husband beside me and as a married woman that wouldn’t be pleasurable.”

The first person I met on section 4 asylum support lived in Stockton-on-Tees, with her daughter who was nearly two. I hadn't heard of the Azure card, or any of the mean-minded hassles that went along with it – that your benefits, such as they are, come in vouchers rather than cash, so you can't get a bus or make a phone call, can't post a letter or buy a pint of milk from your corner shop. You have to be housed three miles from a shop that takes your Azure card; that can mean a six-mile walk every time you want to buy something.

Seventeen-year-old Miriam Mendez tells how she and her brother, Marcos Soliz, spent weeks walking to a better future.

They plodded through the deserts and mountains of Mexico from their native San Marcos, Guatemala, for days at a time without food, a bath or a break. They did so in the hopes they would find jobs and an education in a new land to support their impoverished family back home.

A number of core themes and issues have emerged from today’s blog carnival, organised by Samantha Arnold of the Irish Refugee Council.
In Samantha’s post, she noted that separated children need to be cared for under the Child Care Act 1991, and the challenges that social workers faced when dealing with separated children in Ireland. Samantha looked at how the Independent Advocacy Pilot was leading to better outcomes for separated children, yet also the enormous challenges facing separated children as they transition to adulthood. Lisa has noted the sense of purpose and achievement of involvement with the Independent Advocacy Pilot and has emphasised the role of the voice of the child as being key to understanding their needs, wishes and dreams.

The Department of Homeland Security finally issues credible sexual assault protection for immigrants in detention. Will Health and Human Services follow suit?
Last week, after years of debate over whether immigrants in their custody needed protections against sexual assault, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) released long-awaited draft regulations that detail the agency's plan to satisfy the requirements of the Prison Rape Elimination Act (PREA). It has taken enormous amounts of time and advocacy to reach this place, but this is a major victory. These regulations are a critical step for creating real safeguards to protect the human rights of immigrants in detention. Immigrants in detention -- who often do not speak English, are facing deportation and have little access to lawyers -- deserve the same protections as everyone who is in confinement in the United States.

I don’t think I’ve ever heard wiser words come out of Senator John McCain’s (R-Ariz.) mouth. On Fox News Sunday McCain advocated for immigration reform with less focus on abortion for the GOP. The senator, and 2008 Republican presidential nominee, is echoing sentiments of not only millennials, those upset with the establishment, but also of immigrants themselves.

On a rainy day in the rolling Adelaide Hills in South Australia, children step off a school bus that has just driven into a gated community. Parents greet the kids with hugs and kisses, sheltering them with umbrellas as they walk to their homes, modest brown, brick bungalows built in the mid-1970s.
It looks like an ordinary suburb, except for one significant factor: These people cannot leave. This is Inverbrackie, an immigration detention centre for asylum seekers who have come to Australia by boat with their families.

“I cried a lot because it reminded me of when I was locked up in the kidnapping.”

One of the reasons the detention of migrant children can be so devastating is that it is used on those who have often experienced the worst of life already.

At 16, Carolina left Honduras looking for a new life. By train and foot she made it to Tealpas, on the Mexican-US border. She was just kilometers from the country of her dreams.

But it would be two months of horror before she crossed the border.


In Tealpas, Carolina was kidnapped and transported to a house where she would be kept in the dark with 80 other people. That is where she saw first hand what no child should see.

“I’ve asked myself why? Why do they detain you? If supposedly one is free.”





When he was first captured by US officials, Sergio was kept in the so-called ‘ice box’, a room without any windows or natural light, where people don’t know what time of day it is. Detainees also report that the air conditioner is turned up, which makes it hard for them to sleep.

Diane Taylor conveniently ignores what really matters (Still locking up children (BELOW), 24 October). Children of asylum seekers used to be in detention centres, sometimes for many months. They had bad facilities, and care and understanding for their plight was not there. Now, when it is decided that a family be returned to their country of origin, families with children go to the Cedars asylum centre before departure.

Lawyers for Human Rights is the only non-governmental organisation regularly and consistently working in immigration detention centres around the country. With its twelve-year track record and ongoing direct contact with large numbers of detainees, LHR has unique first-hand information on detainee experiences, conditions of detention, immigration trends and shifts in immigration policy and practice. This is especially important given the lack of other independent monitoring of immigration detention facilities.

Violence in three Central American countries is the primary reason behind a dramatic upsurge in the number of unaccompanied immigrant children crossing the border into the United States, and until conditions in these countries change substantially, this trend will be the new norm, cautions the Women’s Refugee Commission in Forced From Home: The Lost Boys and Girls of Central America, a report released today.
