Media’s coverage of immigration is rooted in the idea that national borders are artificial constructs and that no one is “illegal.” Solutions to anti-immigrant sentiments and laws are based on the non-negotiable rights and well-being of migrants, asylum-seekers, refugees, first- and second-generation immigrants, and mixed-status families.
