Okay, so we are in the midst of completing a campaign promise of sending illegals back to their home countries. Without proper documentation, they are simply not entitled to remain here. But, what happens to them when they're sent back home?
Deportees back in Mexico offered free training to become English teachers
A big talent pool to be gainfully employed in Mexico City (Federal District as known to Mexicans). So, does that mean in effort to make more Mexicans bilingual? English is, after all, the international language of commerce.
But, within this story comes something not quite as positive.
Mexico City currently receives three flights of deportees from the United States a week, an average of 350 arrivals, 10 percent of whom choose to remain in the capital. Those who make up this 10 percent are generally young men to whom Mexico is a foreign country, with little cultural or family connections having been taken to the U.S. as young children. Finding themselves alone, without official documentation and spurned by the city’s residents, many end up homeless.
“The deportees live extremely difficult lives,” said Marco Castillo, the founder of IIPSOCULTA, a humanitarian organization that works, among many other projects, to improve the lives of U.S. deportees in Mexico.
“This city is very intense, competitive, angry and expensive. For someone who has been through the psychological stress of deportation from a country they call home, it can be too much.”
So, how do we otherwise compassionate Gringos deal with this? They did not come here of their own free will. And, what happens to those sent back to countries with worse conditions than Mexico?
Any comments?
