Argumentative Essay On Human Rights

556 Words | 3 Pages

We observe today widescale human rights infringement of refugees and degradation of morality as individuals, including children, sit idle in war torn regions hoping for the chance to make a better life in America. Seeking protection, many brave and vulnerable individuals experience additional breaches of human rights as a consequence of mandatory detention. The United States holds in its hands the power to ensure all refugees are treated with dignity and regard for their basic human rights, and yet still struggles to assure the survival and the success of universal liberty due to xenophobia and bureaucratic interference. Unwilling to witness the continued undoing of human rights to which the United States has consistently been committed, this

Unaccompanied Alien Child

340 Words | 2 Pages

A social justice related problem that concerns me, as a future social worker candidate is an immigrant child looking for help and fleeing to other countries to look for help. An example is the unaccompanied alien child law. Unaccompanied alien child (UAC) is a term defined by law as a child who has no lawful immigration stat¬us in the United States, who is not 18 years of age; and with respect to whom there is no parent or legal guardian in the United States. Under this law these young migrants receive certain protections under U.S. law. Children under the age of 18 traveling to other countries without their parents or guardian have always been a part of global migration flows.

Martin Luther King: The Dehumanization Of Syrian Refugees

826 Words | 4 Pages

Approximately 4.8 million refugees have fled to Turkey, Lebanon, Jordan, Egypt, and Iraq. Additionally, 6.6 million refugees are internally displaced inside of Syria. Most of these refugees are being treated as if they aren’t equal members of society, their rights are being stripped from them and they are being dehumanized through various poor treatment. Martin Luther King fought for the freedom of black people because they weren’t being given fair rights as equal human beings, they were being seen as lower than society, which is exactly what is happening to Syrian refugees. In some cases refugees aren’t only being treated as if they aren’t equal contributing members of society, but they are being completely disregarded in general.

Human Flow Documentary Analysis

Overall, the pursuits of life are taken away from refugees and with it their dignity as a human being is chiseled away. According to Catholic Social Teaching, all people possess dignity, yet through displacement large masses of people are continuously subjected to situations that leave them utterly un-empowered. What I feel this disconnect unveils is the importance of another key feature of Catholic Social Teaching, the promotion of justice. Although, not everyone is Catholic or religious, I think multitudes of individuals would agree that people hold the right to having dignity as a human. Therefore, one of the underlying themes of this film is how to help displaced

The Pros And Cons Of Refugees

972 Words | 4 Pages

Leaders and governments around the world have labelled refugees as being a burden on their country either directly or indirectly. These leaders only see them as people who are trying to get into their country to escape the civil war, but fail to see that the refugees are also risking their lives in the process. At present, there are approximately 54.5 million refugees that are displaced, the largest refugee crisis the world has ever seen and they have nowhere to go. The question of doing the right thing and taking them in has been squashed due to various reasons and it appears to be that each country has adopted the ‘each man for himself’ policy by stating that it is their duty to only look after its citizens and no one else.
