'It is not just about migrants; it is also about the face we want to give to our societies,' Pope Francis said.
Pope Francis has called on"every nation" in the world to work to protect"the dignity and rights of migrants and refugees."
Describing"the movements of migration" as"one of the defining signs of our time," the Pope said that the"phenomenon...represents one of the principal moral issues facing our generation." Of course, the Pope's comments come as the Trump administration's own treatment of migrants, asylum seekers and refugees has continued to face international scrutiny and condemnation.
