Migrant Worker Crisis

With an average 5 migrant workers to every Qatari citizen, Qataris are born with people from other foreign countries working for them in all streams of life. However, with the south Asian and

The book Fresh Fruit, Broken Bodies: Migrant Farmworkers in the United States illustrates the fieldwork of the author Seth M. Holmes by explaining the myriad aspects of migrant workers’ lives in the U.S.—from the politics to the social environments to the physical body. By not only studying, but living, the lives of these migrant workers, Holmes brings the reader a view unseen by the vast majority and provides the opportunity for greater understanding through the intense details of his work. The voices of vastly different characters—real people—are captured and expounded on without judgment but with deep consideration for all factors that contribute to each person’s life, opinions, and knowledge. Ultimately, a picture of intersectionality is painted in the colors of migrants, mothers, fathers, children, doctors, soldiers, executives, the poor, the rich, and more.

Case Study Children’s access to Material Assistance The Australian Human Rights Commission headed an inquiry into the children living conditions in detention centres and through this inquiry accumulated evidence of human rights breaches, breached by to Australian Government in relation to children. One such area they documented was concerning the provision of clothing and footwear provided to children. After conducting this inquiry they found that the delivery of essential goods was inadequate for many children in detention centres. A 13 year-old girl living on Nauru explained her struggles living with little clothing,

As the two biggest migrant countries in the world, United States and Canada do have some organizations to help migrant workers protect their rights. According to the CBC News, “Citizenship and Immigration Canada states that “Canadian laws protect every worker in Canada. This includes temporary foreign workers.”(cbc.ca) Government insist that those employers who “employing temporary foreign workers must ensure they are covered by provincial or private health insurance” (cbc.ca). The Migrant Workers Alliance for Change (MWAC) is a coalition of national migrant worker groups, grassroots organizations, unions, faith groups, activists and researchers that have come together to fight for justice and dignity for migrant workers.

The Typical Day: Migrant Case Management Today Sherrill Tanner is a man of few words. Stoic and serious about his work, you would never guess the man truly has a heart of gold. For the better part of more than thirty years, Mr. Tanner has been working hard to change the lives of the less fortunate children of Webster County for the better. He began as an elementary school teacher at Clay Elementary, and has never looked back since. Today, holding a master’s degree of education from a prestigious university he boldly puts that and his abundance of experience to work as a migrant advocate for the migrant education program for Webster County Schools. According to the Kentucky Department of Education website, the migrant education program is “designed to provide supplementary education and human resources services to highly mobile children up to and through the age of twenty-one”. As a case manager, Mr. Tanner’s work is quite different from the employees that work under him, but he still enjoys his work immensely-everything except the paperwork.

Melissa, I enjoyed reading your primary task posting concerning work related issues that migrant farm workers face in the United States. In fact, I completely agree with your statement that even though the United States agricultural industry heavily depends on the labor migrant farm workers provide, the men, women, and children performing the work are for the most part seriously underappreciated. Additionally, you made an extremely interesting point about migrant farm workers who are in the country legally, even though they are eligible for government assistance (WIC, Medicaid, and food stamps), who do not receive these benefits because they are frequently traveling from state to state to find work. I had not considered this element of

Introduction After the United States’ withdrawal from Viet Nam War and the fall of the Saigon to Communist in April, 1975, millions of people fled the country, for their lives and freedom. Many of them immigrated to the U.S. in two different waves. The first wave started in 1975, comprising people who associated with the Americans. The second wave included people who wanted to escape the Communist government’s control. The factors that pushed these two waves of immigration out of Viet Nam, and their efforts to be assimilated into the U.S. society are now parts of American history.

Today we see that there are many evidence of movements towards union that recovers more or less around the world. Due to the impact of globalization and its effects are the reasons why there are trade unions everywhere. The trade union in relation to migrants is a political choice which will reflect on the internal political struggles in the border labor movement.

Mother. What do you think of when you hear the name? For me the word means and represents a lot, a mother is loving, caring, and the one you look to for comfort. They treat us unconditionally with love, do whatever it take to protect us and make us feel safe. What happens when that mother is not able to provide and give comfort because they too are seeking help?

It was instructed to compare and contrast two of the authors from BF190 discussed throughout this course to a media object provided by the professor. The authors I chose to focus on are Thomas Hobbes and Jean Jacques Rousseau. From the readings “Leviathan” by Thomas Hobbes (CITE) and “Discourse on the Origin of Inequality” by Jean Jacques Rousseau (CITE), both authors have similar but yet very different viewpoints on ideas they have made. The ideas I will be comparing and contrasting between these two philosophers are their different beliefs and understandings on the state of nature and the social contract. The media objective I have chosen to focus on is Outsourcing a Refugee Crisis: U.S. Paid Mexico Millions to Target Central Americans Fleeing Violence. Throughout this essay, I will exhibit my knowledge on these philosophers and their views on both theories.

Hi Mrs. Yaryura, The information and statistics gathered regarding the vets and their families leads me to think that the vet project is an idea we should further key in on. I think the idea of having a way for these families, especially those with a son/sons, to experience a “fatherly” sports day is spectacular and should be taken heavily into consideration.

Treatment towards Migrant Workers Within In the novel Hard Times by Charles Dickens and the novel The Grapes of Wrath by John Steinbeck both express a theme of vulgar treatment toward migrant workers’ and even towards anyone who was different and did not fit into their society. Both of novels tell great stories of disasters that have happened during the course of history. Throughout history, humans have been victimized by poverty. Poverty always turns up after a life changing event occurs. Events such as the Dust Bowl and the Great Depression.

The modern form of migrant trafficking emerged as a concomitant of the rapid globalization of world economies in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, when technological innovation allowed for greater ease of movement of information, goods, and people. In addition to technological advancements, economic interdependence brought about by cross-border flows of commodities, services and capital created new markets in industries like resource extraction, textiles, and service, among others. While globalization laid much of the groundwork for development in the 20th century, it also played a role in determining the outcomes of issues like the first and second World Wars, from which many of the first major modern national security threats arose. These emerging concerns about national security and “migrant threat” to domestic well-being caused many states to and adopt more restrictive policies regarding the movement of individuals across state boundaries. In addition to the increased restrictions after the first and second World Wars, the restructuring of borders during decolonization and the dissolution of the former USSR created arbitrary, formal boundaries for movement that failed to account for existing trade patterns and social ties across borders.
