But almost immediately after arriving, residents of the Playas de Tijuana neighborhood where the migrants are being housed took issue and began arguing with them, telling them to leave.



In a Facebook post, the neighborhood association Vecinos de Playas de Tijuana A.C. said that a delegate from the caravan had agreed upon arrangements to make the area’s residents more comfortable with their presence, including not walking around at night, not being noisy, and getting help from human rights workers for errands like grocery shopping.

6. Wait, they had to leave the caravan because of discrimination?

All of the people in the caravan are being discriminated against and they have the nerve to treat others suffering right along with them badly?
