** DemocracyNow! Segment on
Growing Anti-Immigrant Hate and Violence
with Jennifer Harbury

------------------------------------------------------------
Update from South Texas, where eight people were killed and at least 10 more injured Sunday in Brownsville after a driver rammed his SUV into a group of people near a shelter for migrants. The incident comes just days before the Trump-era Title 42 policy is set to expire and more migrants are expected to seek asylum at the southern U.S. border.

“I can only describe it as a hate crime. It was motivated by hate,” Jennifer Harbury, a longtime human rights lawyer and activist with the Angry Tias and Abuelas, says of the car-ramming attack.

She also talks about the history of U.S. interventions in Central America that destabilized the region and help cause the very reasons people are forced to flee.

"We need to think about it not just legally, but we need to think about that in terms of our national identity. This is us, a nation of immigrants but for the Native Americans. We’re telling these people they should sit and watch their children die? Why?"
- Jennifer Harbury
