Bengaluru,Karnataka,India – Dr. D. Kiran Jeevan, a TEDx speaker and educator, has penned an open letter to U.S. President Donald Trump, urging a compassionate approach to immigration policies. Having once lived in the United States on an F1 visa before returning to India, Dr. Jeevan expressed gratitude for the opportunities America provided him while advocating for dignity and humane treatment for all immigrants.
In his letter, Dr. Jeevan acknowledged Trump’s vision of “Making America Great Again” but emphasized the importance of balancing enforcement with empathy. He cited disturbing reports of inhumane deportation practices, such as a recent flight to Colombia where passengers were allegedly handcuffed and denied basic necessities.
“Every human being is made in the image of God, deserving of respect and compassion,” Dr. Jeevan wrote. He urged Trump to ensure that immigration policies uphold America’s legacy as a beacon of hope for millions, calling for dignified treatment even in deportation processes.
The letter also touched on the plight of undocumented immigrants, many of whom contribute to the U.S. economy while seeking a better future for their families. Dr. Jeevan appealed for policies that reflect America’s core values of hope, liberty, and justice for all.
His message comes at a time when immigration remains a divisive issue in U.S. politics, with debates over border security, deportations, and humanitarian concerns continuing to shape policy discussions. Dr. Jeevan’s plea for a humane approach adds to the global discourse on how nations should balance security with compassion.
It remains to be seen whether Trump or his representatives will respond to the letter, but Dr. Jeevan’s appeal echoes the sentiments of many who believe immigration policies should reflect both strength and humanity.
