The other face of immigration from Mexico is African | TheHill

www.DiasporaEngager.com/extPage/MexicanDiasporaPlatform OPINION | Numbering in the thousands, undocumented African immigrants fear deportation under Trump. When we think of our immigration legal or illegal along our southern border, we often imagine a poor Latino family, led by a coyote across the Rio Grande under the cover of night in a desperate attempt to reach America. America’s collective vision of immigration from its southern border is brown, not black. However, Mexican authorities, and those who closely study immigration patterns are beginning to tell a different story along the U.S.-Mexico border. African immigrants, are arriving daily in Mexico on 20-day transit visas, and paying upwards of $2,200 to be shuttled into America from Mexico to border towns like El Paso in Texas and Calexico and San Ysidro in California. https://www.diasporaengager.com/miniRegister
