The young asylum seeker

Description

In the middle of the Arizona desert where the border wall that separates the US and Mexico ends. At this location, the Mexican cartel escort asylum seekers across the border. On an afternoon, where temperatures reached over 100 degrees F, an 8, 11 and 13 year old siblings traveled thousands of miles through Mexico alone. After crossing the border, they were picked up by the US border patrol to be registered as asylum seekers.
