NY Times: There\u2019s a Name for What Trump Is Doing. Juan Crow.<\/a><\/h2>\n

In its merciless pursuit of people without papers \u2014 most of them Latino \u2014 and its demonization of asylum seekers, refugees, holders of temporary protected status, Muslims and Palestinian rights activists, the Trump administration is accelerating toward a new, modern nadir of Juan Crow<\/a>, just downstream of Jim and Jane.<\/p>\n

When a sitting U.S. senator refers<\/a> to New York immigrants as \u201cinner-city rats,\u201d when a Florida governor waxes rapturously about the \u201cAlligator Alcatraz\u201d immigrant detention center, when a presidential administration takes two months to dismantle decades of civil rights law<\/a>, we must admit that these are acts in a feature presentation of neo-Confederate revanchism targeting brown and Black people. The targeting of the undocumented has a name, after all, based in ugly history and shameful tradition: Juan Crow.<\/p>\n

The phrase was popularized by the journalist Roberto Lovato to describe the \u201cmatrix of laws, social customs, economic institutions and symbolic systems\u201d that isolate and control undocumented immigrants. The domestic policies of the Trump administration have taken this legacy to a more dangerous place.
