Mexicans Meet Separated Family Members Through U.S.-Mexico Border Fence In Tijuana

TIJUANA, MEXICO - MAY 01: Deported family members of "Dreamers" and their supporters pray at the U.S.-Mexico border fence on May 1, 2016 in Tijuana, Mexico. "Dreamers" are U.S.-born American citizen children of undocumented immigrants, many of whom were deported back to their home countries. Mexicans on the Tijuana side can approach the border fence at any time. The U.S. Border Patrol, however, tightly controls the San Diego, CA side and allows visitors to speak to loved ones through the fence during specific weekend hours at "Friendship Park," which straddles the border. The park is the only place along the 1,954-mile border where such interactions are permitted by U.S. authorities. On only three occassions have U.S. officials allowed a gate to be opened at the park for pre-screened separated family members to embrace. (Photo by John Moore/Getty Images)
