NYU Republican “Illegal Immigrant” Game

By immigrationprof

A Republican student group in New York has sparked claims of racism by organizing a game called “Find the Illegal Immigrant”.  Students will act as immigration officers in Thursday’s game and try to find a student in a crowd designated with a badge as the illegal immigrant.

The game has sparked protests from other students with hundreds planning to demonstrate against it.

The New York University College Republican club denied it was racist. It says the game is intended to raise awareness on immigration issues in the United States. Click here.
