Haitian Immigration Issues

Improved Essays
The Haitian immigrants in the United states have enjoyed their stay here, but sadly all good things come to an end at some point. The Haitians have been safeguarded by the Temporary Protection Status (TPS). This protection status will cease on July 20th, 2019. The U.S has to make a decision, on what to do with the Haitians after their TPS expires. A solution I propose to this problem is that United States should should distribute the Haitians to the Caribbean countries, that are allies to the U.S. Bill Nelson a senator from Florida, tweets on the United States current dilemma: “There is no reason to send 60,000 Haitians back to a country that cannot provide for them” (Nelson, 2017).

    The Haitian American culture has been a long-surviving and well-adapting culture. Starting with the indigenous people that occupied the island, before Christopher Columbus’ arrival in 1492. Columbus, being a conqueror for Spain, claimed the island of Haiti for King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella and named it Hispaniola meaning “little Spain”. From thenceforth the indigenous people of the island were killed off during gold conquests and the ruling of the Spanish by forced labor and diseases. With very little of the indigenous people surviving, Hispaniola became a part of the Spanish rule that was forgotten.…

    Living in a forever-changing world, we have to start rethinking our old immigration policies to better respond to the growing number of people being displaced, and also take into consideration the issues that have created the high volume of refugees worldwide. Both Cubans and Haitians have taken to the high seas in the wake of political and economic instability, hoping to reach the shores of Florida, however they have been subject to very differential treatment. Cubans escaping the hardships of daily life in Cuba due to the decades-long U.S-imposed embargo have long benefited from an immigration policy that allows them to remain in the United States with the possibility to become U.S. citizens. The Cuban adjustment act of 1966 provided an easy route for Cuban citizens to gain a…

    The first large wave of Haitian immigrants coming to the US happened from 1957 through most of the 1960’s, as Haitians were fleeing the fascist and oppressive Duvalier regime in control of the Haitian government. The Haitian immigrants were families of upper class educated professionals and middle-class skilled workers, with the majority of those groups leaving Haiti, depleting it of its educated and highly-skilled societal members and workforce. The Haitian immigrants in the US were seen as being Black, and soon challenged with societal systemic oppression from institutional racism. However, being that these immigrants had the highest levels of socio-economic status in Haiti, they also had resources to cope with and combat the oppression (Desrosiers & St. Fleurose, 2002; Prou, 2005).…

    Illegal Immigration and Who it affects Central America is home to some of the world’s most violent countries not at war today, and for families living in these oppressed countries, run down by corrupt leaders or political and street warfare, migrating is often the only hope for survival. Children born into these countries, will only know violence and death as a way of living, and rarely will have the chance at a normal safe life. This ongoing war, crime and violence has led to an extraordinary number of people to be chased out of their homes and into neighboring countries, including the United States, creating discord among our leaders and citizens on how the country should manage the influx of people entering the country illegally. The struggle and length of time it takes to obtain refugee status, and the prominent danger these people are in, often leads them to enter the country illegally. Illegal Immigration policy must be a priority for the United States, as it affects the lives of men, women and children who are victims of violence and corruption worthy of refugee status, that deserve to…
