We have a serious problem in Malta with seeing and treating black immigrants as human beings and Maltese citizens. Since the system does not provide this community with proper documentation, identification, access to education, and citizenship, these people end up in precarious jobs and life situations. We need to seriously challenge government and the legislations that are preventing these people from living respectful and dignified lives. After all, isn't this a Christian country?
