Trump Uses Immigration Enforcement To Make America Whiter Again

April 25, 2026 Margaret Kimberley, Black Agenda Report. Educate! Citizenship, Immigration, Trump Administration, White Supremacy

A recent headline on the BBC website read, “US has let in 4,499 refugees since October - all but three were South African.” The BBC was strangely imprecise in its language and didn’t point out the elephant in the room. The 4,499 South Africans designated as refugees and admitted to the U.S. are all white, unlike the majority of people in that country. Despite a well-coordinated effort claiming that white South Africans are victims of a genocide, they are, in fact, still most of the landowners and own almost all of the country’s wealth.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement has escalated a nationwide campaign of racial profiling and arbitrary detention against Indigenous people, seizing members of federally recognized tribes in Minnesota, Arizona, and Oklahoma in what tribal leaders are denouncing as open treaty violations and a direct attack on Native sovereignty. What began earlier this month with mass arrests in Minneapolis has now spread across state lines. Native citizens are being stopped, detained, and threatened despite presenting valid tribal identification and proof of U.S. citizenship.

ACLU Sues Trump Over Birthright Citizenship Executive Order

The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), along with several other pro-immigrant groups, is suing the Trump administration after President Donald Trump signed an executive order that seeks to end the constitutionally recognized right of birthright citizenship. The 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution states in its first sentence that: All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside. Yet on Monday, his first day back in the White House, Trump falsely asserted that he had the presidential right to unilaterally change the interpretation of the amendment.

Trump To Target Native-Born US Citizens

President-elect Trump is claiming that he can abolish birthright citizenship, seeking to strip citizenship from 7 million or more Americans who are children of undocumented immigrants. This has been a long-time demand of right-wing anti-immigrant individuals and organizations, such as Republican Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, former Arizona State Senator Russell Pearce (best known as the sponsor of Arizona’s anti-immigrant SB1070 law) and anti-immigrant organizations such as the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR).

Starting in the early morning of Feb. 24, sectarian violence between Hindus and Muslims broke out in several neighborhoods in northeast New Delhi — all while Donald Trump was on a visit to India.

Citizenship Law Protests Shut Down India’s Capital

India’s national capital, New Delhi, faced a lockdown unprecedented in history on Thursday as protests over the religion-based Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) broke out across the country. The Act allows refugees from Pakistan, Bangladesh and Afghanistan to become Indian citizens but bars Muslims. This, many have complained, violates the constitution of India – a country whose population includes 200 million Indian Muslims. Anger against the amended law had spread across India after students were beaten up in Delhi on Sunday and more protests were planned.

People Increasingly See Themselves As Global Citizens

April 29, 2016 Educate! Citizenship, Globalization, International

By Naomi Grimley for BBC News - People are increasingly identifying themselves as global rather than national citizens, according to a BBC World Service poll. The trend is particularly marked in emerging economies, where people see themselves as outward looking and internationally minded. However, in Germany fewer people say they feel like global citizens now, compared with 2001.

French Constitutional Amendment On State Of Emergency

December 25, 2015 Alex Lantier, www.wsws.org Educate! Citizenship, France, State of Emergcy, Terrorism

By Alex Lantier for WSWS. French President François Hollande and Prime Minister Manuel Valls presented to the council of ministers yesterday an amendment inscribing the state of emergency in the French constitution. Even the fragmentary initial reports that emerged from the meeting show that it opened the way to the lasting imposition of police-state rule in France. The amendment that Hollande proposed would allow the president to call a state of emergency the duration of which would be set by legislation. The amendment places no restrictions on how long a state of emergency parliamentarians could decide to allow. It also permits a stepped-up use by police of their already enormous powers of repression and electronic surveillance of the population. Moreover, by proposing to extend the deprivation of nationality to dual nationals condemned for “terrorist crimes,” including dual nationals born French, the ruling Socialist Party (PS) is openly affirming its sympathies for the ideas of the neo-fascist National Front (FN).
