San Luis ICE Detention Center:
The System Is Meant to Break You
The videos circulating on social media are brutal and terrifying — the often violent arrests, people pulled screaming from their cars, out of day care centers, away from their children and their spouses. What should give Americans equal pause is the inhumanity happening beyond the cameras, away from the view of judges and lawyers and the media. Due process is not a constitutional right afforded only to citizens; legal restrictions on unlawful detention apply to all people on U.S. soil.
Celebrated in the upcoming AP 42 American Photography annual as one of the year’s best in editorial photography.
