For the last two years, a river of Central American migrants has streamed north to the United States. Some flow into Trump’s concentration camps, while others are pushed back into shantytowns in Mexico or to so-called “safe third countries – Guatemala for Hondurans and Salvadorans and Honduras for Guatemalans, making a farce of our asylum laws. Upon arrival parents and children have been torn apart, even parents from nursing babies. Some are subject to horrific conditions, callousness, and racism by ICE agents and the Border Patrol.
In May 2019 the Cross Border Network joined with activists from Canada and the U.S. to investigate the roots of migration. What are the systemic reasons why so many are fleeing.

Our Mission
The Cross Border Network for Justice & Solidarity educates about the imperialist policies of the U.S. and their effect on countries in Latin America and the Caribbean. We challenge Americans to recognize that corporate-driven globalization and militarism are major forces driving migration. We organize for human rights and economic justice by connecting working people and their families in solidarity across borders.
We support workers across borders and who cross borders!

Chris Roesel spent two weeks in El Paso volunteering at Annunciation House helping immigrants dumped there by ICE. He kept a diary while he took dozens of immigrants each day to the bus station and airport for travel to family members throughout the U.S. He had to explain how you go through security, find your plane, change planes in other airports for people who come from remote mountain villages in Guatemala.
