March 22 — NAU Latin American Studies, NAU No More Deaths to present ‘Human Rights Crisis in the Borderlands’

On Monday, March 22 at 1 pm, the Colibrí Center for Human Rights will talk about the human rights crisis at our southern border and their work to find justice. This presentation is put on in partnership with Northern Arizona University No More Deaths and the NAU Colibrí Campus Ambassador.

Since 1998, at least 7,805 human beings have lost their lives while attempting to cross the U.S.-México border. More than 3,500 people remain disappeared. In their absence, tens of thousands of families across the United States and Latin America are left with the agonizing uncertainty of not knowing what has happened to their loved ones. In addition to the emotional trauma they face each day, families are denied truth and justice. The consequences of border deaths and disappearances are felt throughout the Americas: families living in 14 countries and in 43 states across the U.S. have reported disappeared relatives to Colibrí.
