Selena Gomez, a Mexican American singer and actress, publicly voiced her distress over President Trump's recent immigration policies, which led to a surge in arrests and deportations of undocumented migrants. Gomez tearfully shared her concern for the families affected, particularly those from Mexico, on Instagram before deleting the post and responding to criticism with a message about the importance of empathy.
Selena Gomez is among the many Americans experiencing a roller coaster of emotions in reaction to President Trump 's latest actions regarding immigration. As promised, the newly reinaugurated president has instructed immigration control to “crack down” on undocumented migrants, leading to nearly a thousand arrests on Sunday alone, per the BBC, a stark increase from the typical totals of the Biden years.
All my people are getting attacked, the children. I don’t understand. I’m so sorry, I wish I could do something but I can’t. I don’t know what to do. I’ll try everything, I promise,” she said on Instagram Stories. A short while later she apparently deleted that story and replaced it with a black screen and the testy response, “Apparently it’s not ok to show empathy for people.” This is not the first time Selena Gomez has spoken out about the issues faced by undocumented residents.
