My story about a 21st-century tragedy to mourn on Tish'a B'Av

The year is 2039.

The place:  Federal Court, El Paso, Texas.

Class-Action Lawsuit:
Association of Latinx Child Immigrants and Adoptees of the United States vs. United States.

Charges:
Child Abuse, Child Neglect, Criminal Negligence.

Plaintiff charges that, as children under the age of six, they were deliberately separated from their parents and kept in squalid locations without adequate food, water, living conditions, sanitary facilities, or health care.  Furthermore, since no records or inadequate records were kept by the United States government, some children and/or their parents could not be identified, and, therefore, those children were put up for adoption without any attempt being made to reunite them with their parent(s), other relative(s), or pre-existing guardian(s).


No, the Association of Latinx Child Immigrants and Adoptees of the United States does not exist.

But it will, when these children grow up.
