Graphic artist Rebecca Burke was on the trip of a lifetime. But as she tried to leave the US she was stopped, interrogated and branded an illegal alien by ICE. Now back home, she tells others thinking of going to Trump’s America: don’t do it
I used to take semi-regular business trips to the US, but I think from this point I will try to move everything online. Aside from it not being safe for me in other ways, all it would take is someone with a suspicion that my work on the trip is “illegal” to send me to prison :/
Speaking as an American, everyone who can needs to stay the fuck out until we can get some semblance of having our shit together.

My entire extended family is in America. They voted for Trump, we will never be visiting them again most likely. America is not safe.
