A three-part report on the migration crisis at the US-Mexico border (Part III scheduled to be released this year). Each part accompanied by a video summary.

"The Disappeared report series is collaborative project between two Tucson-based organizations, La Coalicion de Derechos Humanos and No More Deaths. [...] . Our research goals are transformative: to expose and combat those US government policing tactics that cause the crisis of death and mass disappearance in the borderlands."

Scott Warren was arrested after he helped migrants – but he’s a humanitarian aid worker trying to save lives in a place where so many find death.

Scott is the ninth No More Deaths volunteer to be arrested for giving water to thirsty migrants.

About No More Deaths

Looks like a good organization. They've published several reports on the mistreatment of migrants by law enforcement at the Mexican border.

"No More Deaths is a humanitarian organization based in southern Arizona. We began in 2004 in the form of a coalition of community and faith groups, dedicated to stepping up efforts to stop the deaths of migrants in the desert and to achieving the enactment of a set of Faith-Based Principles for Immigration Reform."
