Hmm convincing anyone of anything is nearly impossible unless they have an open mind.
Through history we can see that these situations of immigrants being ill received either works itself out over time or becomes more toxic.
I agree that those acts are disgraceful but it’s natural human instinct to be discriminate. It has taken many years for North America to appreciate each culture for what it is yet still we see the native people looked down upon for how they choose to live.
The only real approach you have is to speak out against it but then you must also be willing to stand your ground, think about Martin Luther King and his sacrifice for the African American population in the USA. Just do not take a route which insights violence because that will only add fuel to the fire and widen the divide.

A few years ago, many foreigners came to Venezuela to improve their economic situation and there was no type of discrimination. , today it is our turn to emigrate and we have been mistreated and humiliated. I think we all deserve the same respect.
The other thing is that we are not emigrating because we want, but because the situation forces us, the majority of emigrants from Venezuela have had to leave without a passport because the government does not want to give us our passports, the most painful thing is to leave our family.

I agree we all deserve the same respect but the problem remains around borders and freedoms to then be able to travel as needed freely. I for one am a supporter of the idea of a one world currency it would help those countries which have economical crisis as the value of the currency would not drop. The problem with discrimination with elimination of borders would subside but we still live in a world where they wish to divide and control us thus we would first need to evolve our current governments.
It’s a terrible thing to have to endure and sad to see it still exists in our world but places like the USA haven’t really gotten that much better. People band together behind their heritage and wish to protect their people which of itself is just discrimination against others even with good intentions.
Now we see what I call reverse racism where people claim the white race is being discriminated against. Honestly white people invaded the entire world at one point or another destroying many cultures and civilizations so we are just getting what is rightly coming to us.
I do hope you find a way of getting by with your life being happy and content but change does not come without its sacrifice, we must be strong and endure!
