"Roots of the current border crisis began almost 25 years ago with the passage of NAFTA. No More Deaths and other humanitarian groups responded to the resulting surge of migrants into Arizona beginning in 2000.

""No More Deaths"" chronicles this response through desert and border work, conflicts with Border Patrol and Fish and Wildlife, federal trials of humanitarians for assisting migrants, energetic support from volunteers, substantial financial response from supporters throughout the country and collaboration with other humanitarian groups.

After ten years of restraint by government agencies, at this printing, a No More Deaths volunteer, Dr. Scott Warren, faces federal trial for feeding, clothing, and providing a resting spot for two migrants in Ajo, Arizona. In FY 2000, Border Patrol processed more than 1,600,000 migrants, yet 390,000 asylum seekers during 9 months of FY 2019 constitutes a crisis. This doesn't make sense. Read real stories of volunteers assisting migrants so they can join their families, feed their children, and work in jobs ""we"" don't want to do. This book provides a strong case for comprehensive immigration reform NOW."

Reviews for No More Deaths: Humanitarian Aid is Never a Crime, Saving Lives of Migrants

What I liked about your book: Although you were telling a very sad story of our migrants and the way they suffer, you make it very readable with clear language and flow. I am finding it hard to put down. I admire you so much for keeping all those records and then sharing them with us--your readers. It would be wonderful if NO MORE DEATHS could be made into a movie so more people (and the government) would learn of this factual story of how migrants coming to our country--the land of migrants--to be free, suffer. Thank you for all you did to bring this book together. Nancy Thank you so much for letting me read some of the pages of your book. I am anxious to read the entire published version. I hope you will sign my copy.Congratulations on this wonderful accomplishment. Carol Your persistence paid off for you. Your book is finished and being read by many people. Linnea Recently, I was in a group where we were asked to connect in pairs and share with one another about a person who is an inspiration and role model to you in living a life of persistence and working for justice. A no brainer, as kids, say. I shared with my discussion partner about you and your husband and No More Deaths. I just finished my reading of your book, Sue, and am spreading the word about it--and lending out my copy. Thank you to you both for your leadership and your encouragement to us all. Nancy
