What is the human rights issue in my book?  

A: I think that the human rights issue was that immigrants should be able to go to the U.S. freely and safely if an immediate family member is there. Enrique is struggling to get to his mother but is constantly caught and deported back to his country. In the book "Enrique's Journey", it states that Enrique has already made 7 attempts and has been deported and is still trying. He has been beaten by police, robbed and deported many times, yet he is still trying. He has heard countless stories during his journey about migrants being beaten, raped, pushed off trains, and robbed. Some are trying to find their loved ones, while others are hoping to get a job in the U.S.
