US President Donald Trump Draws Line on Public & Private Spaces
In the wake of President Donald Trump's recent "Muslim Ban" enforcement the division of public and private places in the US also changes. Find out what does the government mean for the two now, learn as well the huge effect of it to the lives of many.
"The line between privately owned and publicly accessible is really beginning to blur," City University of New York government and public affairs professor Anthony Maniscalco explained as quoted by Architect Magazine. This is the latest hurdle many Americans are currently facing right now in the Trump Era.
Accordingly, the loosening division of public-private spaces sparked again after the refusal of entry of many US card holders noted countries. A huge protest broke out in John F. Kennedy's Terminal 4 as some concern citizens tried to help those who were currently trapped in the airport's immigration office.
During the protest, Charlotte Alter one of the earliest members of the press questioned the police why people were being held. She questioningly received an answer that the place was supposedly private owned. Though, it is stated that JFK is legally owned and run by the New York.
On this part of the news, Alter already began to realize the growing tension between public and private space. It seems that in the efforts of the government to shut down protests they are already killing the rights of many citizens for this places.
As stated by the New Yorker, the inhuman executive order of President Donald Trump made the airports and lots other public spaces clogged by the patriotic citizens. These are those who don't want to repeat another history's mistakes so they bring unity to fight the worsening effect of the new laws.
"We are all immigrants," this is what all the demonstrators want Trump to realize. After the big Battery Park protest and its intense signature campaign, the government seems to be keener on trampling its people's right to democracy on public spaces.
