Document Summary

The political debate that i will be choosing to focus on is immigration policies. Should we be allowed to deport immigrants because they are here illegally or do you allow them to stay because they are also human beings. The three philosophers i wish to likely use are.

Martha nussbaum would potentially argue that through the education of children to view humans as people of the world, we should not deny other people the right to live in america just because they are not a citizen. That when we view ourselves as citizens of the world we would be more accepting of people and different cultures. Locke would give reasoning and evidence as of the right to property, and support what defines a human and that rights they have. Deferred action for childhood arrivals ( justice or injust)
