Amnesty International

Whenever i hear the name Amnesty International, only two countries come to mind. The U.S, and Mexico. Their as i hope you all know, a large debate regarding weather or not these aliens should be welcomed into this country. Up until this summer i was indifferent on the issue. That was until i was in Israel this summer that i was sent on a "Tikkum Olam" mission or a "Fix the World" mission to go help college students outside of the capital buildings in Jerusalem, play with Sudanese refugees. I had no idea that people all the way from Sudan, which is on another Continent. When i got their everyone knew that they were thankful that they had arrived in you could say the only secured country in the Middle East. Their lives had been changed significantly. I compared that situation to the one at home. Why couldn't we just let all people in. Yes, our lives will change to, their will be more Spanish everywhere. But the isn't the essence of America just a big melting pot?
