From Nbc News And Msnbc Correspondent Jacob Soboroff, Winner Of The 2019 Walter Cronkite Award: An Intimate And Deeply Reported Journey To Uncover The Truth Behind The Defining Humanitarian Crisis Of The Trump Years. Donald Trump's Most Infamous Decision As President, To Systematically Separate Thousands Of Migrant Families At The Border, Was In Effect For Months Before Most Americans Saw The Living Conditions Of The Children In Custody At The Epicenter Of The Policy. Nbc News And Msnbc Correspondent Jacob Soboroff Was Among The First Journalists To Expose The Truth Of What Their Lives Were Like On The Inside After Seeing Them Firsthand. His Widely Shared Reports In June 2018 Ignited Public Scrutiny That Contributed To The President Reversing His Own Policy By Executive Order, And Earned Soboroff The Cronkite Award For Excellence In Political Broadcast Journalism And, With His Colleagues, The 2019 Hillman Prize For Broadcast Journalism. In Separated, Soboroff Weaves Together His Own Experience Unexpectedly Covering This National Issue With Other Key Figures In The Drama He Met Along The Way, Including Feuding Administration Officials Responsible For Tearing Apart And Then Reuniting Families, And The Parents And Children Who Were Caught In The Middle. He Reveals New Details Of How The Policy Was Carried Out, And How Its Effects Are Still Being Felt. Today, There Is Still Not A Full Accounting Of The Total Number Of Children The President Has Ripped Away From Their Parents. The Exact Number May Never Be Known, Only That It Is In The Thousands. Now The President Is Doubling Down On Draconian Immigration Policies, Including Threatening To Hold Migrant Families Indefinitely And Making Tens Of Thousands Applying For Asylum Wait In Some Of Mexico's Most Dangerous Cities. Separated Is Required Reading For Anyone Who Wants To Understand How Trump And His Administration Were Able To Carry Out This Inhumane Policy, And How So Many Missed What Was Happening Before It Was Too Late. Soboroff Lays Out Compassionately, Yet In The Starkest Of Terms, Its Human Toll, And Makes Clear What Is At Stake In The 2020 Presidential Election.
