Racial Discrimination against Black migrants in the United States
“On March 7, 2023, various organizations working on issues related to racism and human mobility in the Americas presented a public hearing before the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights (“IACHR”) regarding racism and migration. A report detailing the findings presented during the hearing was submitted to the IACHR in June 2023. This paper represents the portion of the report prepared by the Black Alliance for Just Immigration (“BAJI”). BAJI is grateful to all the partners whose contributions made the public hearing and report to the IACHR. We would like to thank the Center for Justice and International Law (CEJIL), the Center for Immigration Law and Policy (CILP) at the UCLA School of Law, Comunidades Indígenas en Liderazgo Organizativo (CIELO), Haitian Bridge Alliance (HBA), Migrant Works Alliance for Change (MWAC), the Promise Institute for Human Rights at the UCLA School of Law, Observatorio de Racismo en México y Centroamérica, RacismoMX, Espacio Migrante A.C, and Cameroonian Action Network.”
