Evilism Trumpziism creating fear among law abiding, legal and faithful Haitian immigrants

Haitian migrants in Springfield, Ohio, turn to faith as deportation fears rise

Echo report by David Crary Religion News Director for the Associated Press

Many migrant communities across the U.S. have been unsettled by (EvilismTrumpziism😈❗❗) Donald Trump’s promised migration crackdown. Among them, with a very specific reason for anxiety, are the 15,000 Haitians in Springfield, Ohio. They are peaceful people who were dragged into the already heated immigration debate last year, after Trump falsely accused them of eating their neighbors' cats and dogs. Now − even though most of them migrated legally − they're fearful the crackdown will target them. The AP Religion Team’s Luis Andres Henao and Jessie Wardarski met with many community members on a recent trip to Springfield and attended a worship service at one of their churches. At the end of the service, the pastor knelt in prayer, flanked by the flags of Haiti and the United States. “I asked God to protect my people,” the Rev. Reginald Silencieux said afterward. “I prayed especially for the Haitian community, and I prayed for U.S.A. too.”
