Businesses and schools have to make sure their employees and students are legal. It is known that most illegal immigrants in the United States of America are from Central America and Mexico, so the suspicion of the officers will be based on skin color, stature and typical physical people. Certainly, one factor is the economic crisis and the fact that many Americans unfairly blame illegal immigrants for the bad situation of the country.

    “When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best. ... They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists.” When Donald Trump began his presidential campaign with this racist statement about Mexican immigrants, it was evident that his campaign would be focused on demonizing and stereotyping those who were not white, male and Christian.

However, people can work to mitigate this impact by calling their representatives in Congress and asking to oppose racist policies and nominations and by standing up to instances of racism that they encounter in their own lives…
