Today is #WorldRefugeeDay. Human displacement has doubled in the past 20 years. As a nation, we should show empathy for those who have fled their homes fleeing violence and persecution, including those internally displaced. bit.ly/2WVoWdB

“I was taught from an early age about the desperate plight of the immigrant and the blazing hope that America held out to them. Immigrants are not our enemies. I don’t know any progressive who is arguing for open boarders, but we are arguing for open hearts.” Marianne

Most Americans wouldn't have the ability to show empathy, much less understanding, for those fleeing violence and persecution. They don't have the empathy for fellow Americans suffering injustice, much less homelessness. Why would we expect empathy from them for foreigners?

Perhaps you should mention the US’s history of creating refugees in Central and South America, the Middle East...
Historically, our nation has been in the business of creating refugees, for oil, resources and our "national interest" which can be read as, we see you as a threat, even if you aren't. This we shamefully do, to this day.
