We Belong Together (campaign) : ウィキペディア英語版 | We Belong Together (campaign)
The We Belong Together Campaign is anchored by the National Domestic Workers Alliance and the Asian Pacific American Women's Forum along with other groups throughout the United States. We Belong Together is an initiative that is taking place all over the United States, which seeks to brings women from across the nation to bring attention to immigration laws that impact women and also gather women together to fight for immigration reform. This campaign was formed to address issues that are not taking into account the experiences of women, who make up the majority of the immigrant population in the United States. The campaign offers a gender based analysis and focuses on the importance of maintaining nuclear families together. == History == The campaign was created on Mother's Day in 2010 after a group of women from the National Domestic Workers Alliance and the Asian Pacific American Women's Forum traveled to Arizona to investigate the ways in which anti-immigrant law SB1070 would impact women, children, and families. There, these women found that a large number of families were being separated and deported and that a large number of women were suffering from violence which their immigration status prevented them from seeking help in any of these cases and immigration system in place did not address any of these women's issues. The co-chairs of the campaign are currently Andrea Mercado and Miriam Yeung. The campaign is designed to unify and empower women, despite their immigration status, and to mobilize them in efforts to demand a just and fair immigration process be established. They argue that women and children are the face of immigration and thus policies must be implemented that will focus on this population that has been very much ignored. We Belong Together mobilizes women to work towards a "common sense" immigration reform to keep families together. The campaign also focuses on issues that directly affect women that are currently not being addressed such as violence and domestic abuse.
