These Are Our Rights

Are you Latino? Were you born in Mexico? Did you come to America with no papers? If you answered yes to all of these questions you may be in trouble. Mr. Donald Trump wants to build a wall to keep immigrants out of the U.S. He also wants to remove Hispanics and Latinos.

What Mr.Trump might not know is he is taking away one of our human rights. According to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, it say’s, “Everyone has the right to freedom of movement and residence within the borders of each state.” This quote is making it clear that we must have the freedom to move as we please. The Universal Declaration of Human Rights also say’s, “Everyone has the right to leave any country, including his own, and to return to his country.” This quote is also making very clear that if we want to leave our country we have the right to come back as well.

Who is really involved in all of this? Latinos’ in particular are mostly involved in this. By building a wall on the borders of Mexico you are taking away these people’s right to move as they please. If this wall does take place it will result in chaos. How do you think. If so many latinos want to leave their country why do you really think they are leaving?

 We can help immigrants by making protesting to the wall and giving our complaints to the President. We should care because immigrants if that was you and your family, all you want to do is have the best for them, how would you think of them if you were in their shoes. If it all immigrants were removed, there would be a sudden increase in job openings. In the Bureau of Labor Statistics, it say’s, “Other occupations with high shares of Hispanics or Latinos were building and grounds cleaning and maintenance occupations (36.7 percent) and construction and extraction occupations (32.3 percent).” This quote reveals that many jobs in the U.S are occupied by Hispanics or Latinos.

All in all, if this wall is built immigrants human rights will be taken away from them. Also if latinos or Hispanics are removed there would be a sudden increase on job openings. If we don't do something now then who knows what will happen to many innocent people in the future.
