How are US mass deportations impacting African immigrants?

Africa Daily

For African immigrants in the US, the threat of mass deportation is a constant fear.

Many have built lives, found stability, and raised families but now over a million non-US citizens face the reality of potential deportation.

The Trump administration now plans to create a national register for undocumented migrants over the age of 14, with those failing to sign up risking criminal prosecution.

Deportees like Anwar Mohamed, sent back to Somalia in 2018 after being convicted of a felony, recall the shock of being forced to leave the country they had come to see as home.

Alan Kasujja speaks with Anwar and Muktar Ahmed about their deportation experiences, as well as Ghanaian immigration attorney Akua Aboagye, who helps families navigate the complex US immigration system.
