Child protection authorities in Paris are using flawed age assessment procedures for unaccompanied migrant children, excluding many from care they need and are entitled to. Hundreds of these young migrants find themselves homeless, often condemned to sleep on the streets of Paris. These children have suffered through incredibly difficult and dangerous journeys, only to be deprived of the protection and care they need. In the Somali region of #Ethiopia, it seems like everyone knows someone who was locked up in the dreaded Jail Ogaden, but no one wants to speak about the horrors there. The thousands who have been held there are terrified of revealing the horrors that they faced. But now Ethiopia has a new prime minister, Dr. Abiy Ahmed, who has promised reforms and vowed to embrace increased respect for human rights. So far, he has released hundreds of political prisoners but has steered clear of tackling the torture epidemic in Ethiopia’s prisons. There are 41 million people living in the #US who weren’t born here. Donald Trump thinks you should be scared of them. Artist @mollycrabapple and comedian Samantha Bee tell a different story. This Fourth of July, we’re standing with those millions. Amid tomorrow’s celebrations, remember that #ImmigrantsAreUs. Indonesian authorities are fueling an HIV epidemic through complicity in discrimination against lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) people. The government’s failure to halt arbitrary and unlawful raids by police and militant Islamists on private #LGBT gatherings has effectively derailed public health outreach efforts to vulnerable populations. To those marching in support of immigration rights in the US this weekend, we stand with you today and everyday because #ImmigrantsAreUS! The Week in Numbers.
