notes/quotes from 100 min film via netflix:
there is a way out.. there are still good people out there
1 min – meghan finn: trump zero tolerance policy.. separating every child from parent.. official 2018..
2 min – kelly carter: a lot of people don’t realize it’s legal to claim asylum on us soil anywhere anytime.. it’s actually a misdemeanor to cross into the country in a none border check point.. so for equiv of basically a parking ticket we’re separating families and causing lifelong trauma.. t
3 min – meghan finn: they were saying the very act of applying for asylum or entering the country is illegal and on that ground remove the child from the parent.. so understand that.. 1000s of people waiting in line.. to go to jail.. t
5 min – why is traumatizing children part of our policy.. t
why ok w policy ness at all.. nationality: human et al

Split at the Root follows the emotional journey of mothers separated from their children at the U.S. border and the grassroots initiative that, against all odds, reunites those families. When a Guatemalan mother seeking asylum was separated from her kids under the Zero Tolerance Policy, a Facebook post by a mom in Queens coalesced into a movement as thousands of like-minded women across the US refused to stand by quietly. Immigrant Families Together was born – a rapid response group committed to doing what the government couldn’t – or wouldn’t do: reunite parents with their children separated by the Zero Tolerance Policy.
