VOICES: Obama skewers the immigrant justice  movement
Kung Li 
August 28, 2011 
The Obama administration announced last week it will be reviewing  pending 
immigration deportation cases in order to prioritize people with  criminal 
records for deportation over "low-priority" immigrants.  Individuals eligible 
for the DREAM Act, veterans, and victims of crime who  are currently in 
deportation proceedings will, if the reviews are done as  promised, have their 
cases stayed.

The announcement was made in  response to sustained, well-organized 
pressure by immigrants, Latinos and  allies critical of the President's 
deportation 
policies in general and the  controversial Secure Communities (S-Comm) 
program in particular. Three  hundred people walked out of an S-Comm Task Force 
hearing in Los Angeles  on Monday, Aug. 15. Two days later, in Chicago, Task 
Force members were  again confronted by an audience angry at the 
President's use of S-Comm to  ramp up deportations. As in Los Angeles, an 
undocumented 
youth leader  asked the Task Force members to resign, and led a walk out 
from the  hearing. Blocking an exit ramp from the I-94 freeway, six 
undocumented  youths were arrested.

Apparently startled by the forcefulness of  the protests, the Obama 
administration scrambled a conference call on Aug.  18 to announce the 
case-by-case 
reviews. Though modest, it is a concrete  step to stopping the deportation 
of DREAM Act-eligible students and  victims of crimes. Women like 
20-year-old Isaura Garcia, who testified  during the Los Angeles hearing about 
calling 
police for help and ending up  in deportation proceedings, will have their 
cases stayed. A sweetener:  some individuals whose cases are closed will be 
able to apply for work  authorization.

Determined, direct action by courageous and creative  organizers -- 
undocumented youth in particular -- has forced the Obama  administration to 
make a 
real move.

And so the chess game  begins.

How is Obama going to play this? This White House blog post  by Cecilia 
Muñoz, uploaded in the hours between the L.A. and Chicago  hearings, gives a 
clue. Muñoz boasts of "a dramatic increase in the number  of criminals 
deported from the United States," and credits S-Comm for  enhancing Immigration 
and 
Customs Enforcement's (ICE) ability to deport  people who have committed 
crimes. The administration's strategy hinted at  in this blog post is this: 
split immigrants into non-criminals and  criminals, and insist that those 
being deported are criminals, not  immigrants. Or mothers, or long time 
residents, or uncles, or co-workers,  or neighbors, or friends. Labeling people 
"criminals" erases every other  part of their being.

It is a cynical and aggressive strategy that  bolsters ICE and 
de-legitimizes anyone who continues to oppose the  President's deportation 
policies. 
Those policies will, Muñoz said during  the Aug. 11 conference call, continue 
at the same frenzied pace as these  past two years, with no change in the 
overall number of  deportations.

If this is indeed Obama's overall strategy, it  becomes clear that by 
responding as he did to criticisms over S-Comm, the  President is setting up a 
skewer move. In chess, the skewer is an  offensive move that is made possible 
when two pieces are lined up with a  more valuable piece -- let's say the 
queen -- in front of a less valuable  one, like the knight or rook. When the 
piece in front is threatened, the  player must move it aside, sacrificing the 
other piece.

The only  defense to a skewer move is to not put yourself in the position 
of being  skewered in the first place. That can only be done by rejecting 
wholesale  the premise that some people are less valuable than others because 
they  have a criminal record.

Cristian is young, undocumented, and  unfailingly polite. He has a criminal 
record. He was sleeping in a  friend's car when he was woken up by a police 
officer and charged with  underage drinking. He falls within the priority 
category of  "criminal."

Jean Montrevil and his wife Jani are the parents of  four beautiful 
children. Jean came to the U.S. in 1986 as a teenager, with  a green card, from 
Haiti. Jean has a criminal record. When Jean was 20, he  was busted on a 
cocaine charge. The judge sentenced him to 27 years -- an  extraordinarily long 
sentence -- of which he served 10. Since his release,  Jean has built up a van 
service in Brooklyn, became a member of Families  for Freedom, and 
co-founded the New Sanctuary Coalition of NYC. Even  though Jean is a legal 
resident, he is still considered a "criminal alien"  and falls under the high 
priorities for deportation.

Aleida is a  single mother of the three U.S. citizen children, the youngest 
being 6  months old. She has a criminal record. Aleida was arrested in New 
Orleans  for domestic violence after defending herself from a woman visiting 
her  cousin's home. Under the guidelines, Aleida is a "criminal" rather 
than a  victim, and a priority for deportation.

How long is this list of  people who are not protected by the promised 
stays? John Sandweg of the  Department of Homeland Security said that over 94% 
of S-Comm deportations  last year met their "priority" criteria. No complex 
math necessary here --  the reality is that the overwhelming majority of 
people who are facing  deportation will still be deported. Only now, they will 
be deported to the  sound of the Obama administration crowing about how they 
are "deporting  criminals."

The resistance to S-Comm and the criminalization of  immigrants has built 
both momentum and moral power over these past two  years. Holding DHS to its 
word and insisting on a stay of proceedings for  every eligible person will 
-- and should -- be the gratifying, immediate  next move by the advocates 
and organizers that forced the administration  to act.

But to then get drawn into an argument over what  constitutes a "serious" 
crime and what does not, or whether certain types  of crimes should be 
excluded or included, would be playing directly into  Obama administration's 
strategy.

Every statistically-based analysis  of the criminal justice system shows it 
is deeply racially biased at each  stage, and more oriented towards 
policing and convicting people who are  poor than those who are dangerous. 
Contact 
with such a criminal justice  system is no way to decide who should or 
should not be  deported.

Just as illegitimate is the Obama administration's  insistence on enforcing 
immigration laws that it has acknowledged need to  be changed. Change the 
laws first, to give immigrants who have been here  more than five years and 
want to remain a reasonable way to do so legally.  Halt deportations in the 
meantime. Enforcing laws that need to be changed  before changing those laws 
makes no sense. Using a rapacious,  racially-biased criminal justice system 
to carry out -- and justify --  that enforcement turns mere senselessness 
into cruelty. 


Immigration and Mass  Incarceration in the Obama Era: The New Operation  
Wetback

James Kilgore - Center for African  Studies, The University of Illinois
August 4, 2011  
Last week Representative Luis Gutierrez (D-IL) joined a demonstration  in 
Washington D.C. to protest the refusal of President Obama to use his  
executive powers to halt the deportations of the undocumented. Gutierrez’  
arrest 
came only two days after Obama had addressed a conference of the  National 
Council of La Raza. Conveniently forgetting the history of the  civil right 
struggles that made his Presidency a possibility, Obama  reminded those 
attending that he was bound to “uphold the laws on the  books.”

With over 392,000 deportations in 2010, more than in any of  the Bush 
years, many activists fear we are in the midst of a repeat of  notorious 
episodes 
of the past such as the “Repatriation” campaign of the  1930s and the 
infamous Operation Wetback of 1954, both of which resulted  in the deportation 
of hundreds of thousands of Latinos.

But several  things are different this time around. A crucial distinction 
is that we  are in the era of mass incarceration. Not only are the 
undocumented being  deported, many are going to prison for years before being 
delivered across  the border. While the writings of Michelle Alexander and 
others 
have  highlighted the widespread targeting of young African-American males by  
the criminal justice system, few have noted that in the last decade the  
complexion of new faces behind bars has been dramatically changing. Since  the 
turn of the century, the number of blacks in prisons has declined  
slightly, while the ranks of Latinos incarcerated has increased by nearly  50%, 
reaching just over 300,000 in 2009.

A second distinguishing  feature of the current state of affairs is the 
presence of the private  prison corporations. For the likes of the industry’s 
leading powers,  Corrections Corporation of America (CCA) and the GEO Group, 
detaining  immigrants has been the life blood for reviving their financial  
fortunes.

Just over a decade ago their bottom lines were flagging.  Freshly built 
prisons sat with empty beds while share values plummeted.  For financial year 
1999 CCA reported losses of $53.4 million and laid off  40% of its workforce. 
Then came the windfall – 9/11.

In 2001 Steven  Logan, then CEO of Cornell Industries, a private prison 
firm which has  since merged with GEO, spelled out exactly what this meant for 
his sector  :

“I think it’s clear that with the events of Sept. 11, there’s a  
heightened focus on detention, both on the borders and within the U.S.  [and] 
more 
people are gonna get caught…So that’s a positive for our  business. The 
federal business is the best business for us. It’s the most  consistent 
business 
for us, and the events of Sept. 11 are increasing that  level of business.”

Logan was right. The Patriot Act and other  legislation led to a new wave 
of immigration detentions. By linking  immigrants to terrorism, aggressive 
roundups supplied Latinos and other  undocumented people to fill those empty 
private prison cells. Tougher  immigration laws mandated felony convictions 
and prison time for cases  which previously merited only deportation. 
Suddenly, the business of  detaining immigrants was booming. PBS Commentator 
Maria 
Hinojosa went so  far as to call this the new “Gold Rush” for private 
prisons.

The  figures support Hinojosa’s assertion. While private prisons own or 
operate  only 8% of general prison beds, they control 49% of the immigration  
detention market. CCA alone operates 14 facilities via contracts with ICE,  
providing 14, 556 beds. They have laid the groundwork for more business  
through the creation of a vast lobbying and advocacy network. From  1999-2009 
the corporation spent more than $18 million on lobbying, mostly  focusing on 
harsher sentencing, prison privatization and  immigration.

One significant result of their lobbying efforts was  the passage of SB 
1070 in Arizona, a law which nearly provides police with  a license to profile 
Latinos for stops and searches. The roots of SB 1070  lie in the halls of 
the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC), a  far right grouping that 
specializes in supplying template legislation to  elected state officials. 
CCA and other private prison firms are key  participants in ALEC and played a 
major role in the development of the  template that ended up as SB 1070.

For its part, GEO Group has also  been carving out its immigration market 
niche. Earlier this year they  broke ground on a new 600 bed detention center 
in Karnes County, Texas. At  about the same time the company bought a 
controlling interest in BI  Corporation, the largest provider of electronic 
monitoring systems in the  U.S. The primary motivation for this takeover was 
the 
five year, $372  million contract BI signed with ICE in 2009 to step up the 
Bush initiated  Intense Supervision Appearance Program. (ISAP 11). Under 
this arrangement  the Feds hired BI to provide ankle bracelets and a host of 
other  surveillance for some 27,000 people awaiting deportation or asylum  
hearings.

Sadly, the Obama presidency has consistently provided  encouragement for 
the likes of CCA and GEO to grow the market for  detainees. While failing to 
pass immigration reform or the Dream Act, the  current administration has 
kept the core of the previous administration’s  immigration policy measures 
intact. These include the Operation Endgame, a  2003 measure that promised to 
purge the nation of all “illegals” by 2012  and the more vibrant Secure 
Communities (S-Comm). Under S-Comm the Federal  government authorizes local 
authorities to share fingerprints with ICE of  all those they arrest. Though 
supposedly intended to capture only people  with serious criminal backgrounds, 
in reality S-Comm has led to the  detention and deportation of thousands of 
people with no previous  convictions.

At the National Council of La Raza’s Conference Obama  tried to console the 
audience by saying that he knows “very well the pain  and heartbreak 
deportation has caused.” His words failed to resonate.  Instead Rep. Gutierrez 
and 
others took to the streets, demonstrating that  “I feel your pain” 
statements and appeals to the audacity of hope carry  little credibility these 
days. It is time for a serious change of  direction on immigration issues or 
pretty soon, just as Michelle Alexander  has referred to the mass incarceration 
of African-Americans as the New Jim  Crow, we may hear people start to call 
the ongoing repression of Latinos a  “New Operation Wetback.”

Immigrant Marches / Marchas de los Inmigrantes 
(By ACLU)

   EN ESPAÑOL 
_Acerca de  la Union Americana de Libertades  Civiles_ 
(http://www.aclu.org/immigrants/espanol/index.html) 

Immigrants and their supporters are participating in marches all over  the 
country to protest proposed national legislation and to seek justice  for 
immigrants. The materials available here provide important information  about 
the rights and risks involved for anyone who is planning to  participate in 
the ongoing marches. 
If government agents question you, it is important to understand your  
rights. You should be careful in the way you speak when approached by the  
police, FBI, or INS. If you give answers, they can be used against you in  a 
criminal, immigration, or civil case. 
The ACLU's publications below provide effective and useful guidance in  
several languages for many situations. The brochures apprise you of your  legal 
rights, recommend how to preserve those rights, and provide guidance  on 
how to interact with officials.
