Irreparable damage was inflicted on the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights during a bitter and protracted debate spanning much of 1983. The past year has seen the loss of an independent civil rights 'watchdog' that has served the nation welt for over 25 years. It was a one-of-a-kind agency that will be difficult, if not impossible, to replace.

The U.S. Commission on Civil Rights was created by President Eisenhower in 1957 for the express purpose of investigating and monitoring in an objective manner the civil rights policies of the federal government. Under this responsibility it monitors the performance of federal …

In the early 1980's the U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service began a policy of incarcerating Haitians at Miami's Krome Detention Center. A visit to the facility in those days revealed the inhumane treatment being afforded to people who in desperation had fled the tyrannical regime of President-for-Life Jean-Claude Duvalier in creaky, overloaded boats.

At Krome they sat-month after month-segregated from family and friends in a strange new land; prisoners penned in by barbed-wire fences. Krome was aptly characterized as an ugly scar on the face of American democracy.
