Title A name given to the resource A Little Caesars Manager’s Message to Hispanic People, 2025 Description An account of the resource A social media post from February 2025 stated: "This post is to inform you that Little Caesars is not a safe place for undocumented workers. My manager, who claims he has power to call ICE, is willing to put undocumented workers at risk and threaten them with calling ICE to protect himself, and he will likely do so if there are undocumented workers present." This happened in Snellville, GA, which has a significant minority population, amid the rise in deportations following the inauguration of Donald Trump. The source suggests a reignition of negative American policy and social attitudes surrounding immigrants and minorities where instead of being welcomed and encouraged to immigrate to the US, they are being arrested and seen as criminals by the government. This sign was created by Little Caeser's manager, Caleb Marsh, with the intent of scaring away minorities. The photo first circulated on the internet when a customer took a photo and "Luis Estrada Telemundo Atlanta" posted it on Facebook which caused a stir on social media. This source illustrates how government fear and anti-immigrant rhetoric leads to resident fear and mobilization against immigrant groups. In the United States' history, there have been many campaigns against immigrant and minority populations. In the contemporary moment this manager was willing to hate and risk public scrutiny and potential negative feedback because his views align with the current administration. Although Georgia is often seen as a beacon of the "New South" which is diverse and a growing economic power, there are heavy remnants of the racist and anti-immigrant south that we attribute to being in the past. This source may lead us to ask: How can the public fact check the information they encounter online? What motivates and emboldens a population to outwardly hate those deemed "other"?

Title A name given to the resource Religious Liberty, Migration, and the Border Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived United States Conference of Catholic Bishops,<a href="https://www.usccb.org/committees/religious-liberty/religious-liberty-backgrounder-religious-liberty-migration-and-border"> "Religious Liberty Backgrounder: Religious Liberty, Migration, and the Border,"</a> 2025. Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource February 6, 2025 Description An account of the resource This proclamation was issued by the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, an assembly of Catholic bishops who oversee pastoral functions within Catholic congregations in the United States on on February 6, 2025. The proclamation was then archived online for public access. This document expresses strong opposition to the Trump administration’s migration and border policies, grounding the proclamation's stance in Catholic doctrine. It specifically condemns the administration’s expansion of U.S Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) operations into hospitals and schools, as well as its attempts to revoke birthright citizenship (Trump, Executive Order 14160) (“Statement from a DHS Spokesperson on Directives Expanding Law Enforcement and Ending the Abuse of Humanitarian Parole,” United States Department of Homeland Security). This proclamation serves three main purposes. First, it seeks to comfort and support Hispanic immigrant communities, who are predominantly Catholic and directly affected by these policies. Second, it argues that the administration’s actions are immoral, using Catholic teachings to justify this position. Third, it highlights how the government has actively obstructed Catholic organizations working to assist migrants along the US-Mexico border (Mohamed et al., 2023). While the document primarily addresses Catholics, it particularly appeals to Hispanic immigrant communities by emphasizing collaboration between bishops in the US and Mexico. However, it also informs a broader audience about the challenges aid workers face at the border and the alarming nature of the administration’s policies. This source directly engages with migration issues by discussing recent immigration policies and their moral implications. It underscores the essential role religious organizations play at the US-Mexico border and their efforts to uphold the human rights of migrants. The proclamation also highlights the US government’s attempts to hinder Catholic missions from fulfilling their religious duty to help those in need—an act that contradicts the country’s foundational commitment to religious freedom. Since this statement comes from a religious organization, it raises concerns about the unethical direction of US migration policy, a warning that all citizens, regardless of their religious beliefs, should take seriously. As readers analyze this source, they should consider why an outside religious organization must step in to protect migrants' human rights and why the government is aggressively working to reduce its capacity to do so. They should also reflect on how politicians manipulate religion, particularly Christianity, to promote hatred, racism, and xenophobia, despite clear biblical and doctrinal teachings that oppose such views. https://www.kudzu.ecdsomeka.org/files/original/f2bc535f47448a17e1e1889c7044a3f7.png 0e324ad9e9d8c79b895ab2d6b51feb23 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Health Status and Access to Health Care of Documented and Undocumented Immigrant Latino Women Description An account of the resource This table, titled Perceived Health Status, Access to Care, and Diseases and Conditions, presents data on health disparities between documented and undocumented women in Fort Worth, Texas. The data shown in this table is part of a broader study on immigrant health conducted in 2002 by the University of North Texas Health Science Center at Fort Worth. The data’s intended audience is other academics who can then distribute the results to the general public. The researchers recruited 194 women (documented and undocumented) from various locations, including churches, laundromats, flea markets, and health departments. The study focused on Spanish-speaking immigrants and gathered responses through face-to-face interviews using structured surveys adapted from national health studies. Texas has long been a major hub for immigration, and despite Texas’s economic power, in 2005, it had one of the highest percentages of uninsured residents in the country. The survey was used to glean the data to make this graph geared to assess participants’ migration status, health conditions, and access to healthcare services. This sheds light on the barriers faced by undocumented women in accessing medical care. The primary source table has compelling empirical evidence that undocumented migrant women in Fort Worth face significant healthcare access barriers. The data reveal that these women have a lower perceived health status, far less insurance coverage (only 10 of the interviewed undocumented women had insurance in some form), and limited access to primary care (56.6% vs 32.9%). This indicates that immigration status directly impacts health outcomes, which will set the stage to investigate underlying social, political, and economic causes for this gap. Texas’s high uninsured rates emphasize the systemic factors that limit access to essential healthcare services for undocumented populations. Drawing a historical parallel with the Jim Crow era, when African American communities were systematically denied quality healthcare, the data in the table highlights that exclusionary practices have deep roots and lasting impacts. I will further investigate this topic through my secondary sources. This primary source can be useful for advocates, politicians, and physicians who are looking for ways to identify inequities in healthcare and work towards solutions. Future questions could explore how these disparities evolve over time and how state and federal policies influence healthcare outcomes for undocumented immigrants across the U.S. South.
