TEAM BREAKING BORDERS:
Immigration reform
PROJECT STATEMENT
We believe that the issues surrounding immigration, specifically the pathway to citizenship, need to be reassessed. Legal immigration status should not be a barrier for any person to realize their potential. However, in America it is. Achieving a legal status is not an issue that should hinder a person from having equal opportunity. We were all created equal, therefore, we should all be equal regardless of our immigration status.
Our generation is disconnected from the value of opportunity and equality created by civil rights. We need to remember the struggles our predecessors faced in achieving the rights we possess today. By doing this, we are able to influence the way in which our current and future generations perceive the importance of those rights.
All the members from our team, Breaking Borders, have been impacted by immigration. We all know the struggle our parents went through as immigrants and we want to change that. We believe no one should be held back because of immigration status, whether it's one's parents or themselves.
Hopefully, our collection of videos will inspire our generation along with the future generation to commit to action.
