Look at parts of Chicago, and they look a little different under Donald Trump.
Take for example Little Village, a Hispanic neighbourhood on the city’s south side, where the streets look empty.
Locals told us far fewer people were venturing outdoors as a result of the ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) raids, some of which have taken place here.

Steve says his mother is afraid she could be arrested by immigration officials
One man, Steve, told us of the anxieties of his mother, who came from Mexico years ago and is without the appropriate documentation.
He said: “She crossed the border over here to get a better life for us when we were born, to get education and all. She’s scared to go out there, that she might get picked up.”

“I feel scared,” he told us. “I go out feeling frightened. I don’t go out now like I used to. I used to go out every day until night-time, I’d work at any time, but now I can’t go out anywhere.”
He added: “There are rumours about migrants and I’m scared, that they might catch me, deport me. My family depends on me. I can’t go out like I used to, I’m scared, I’m scared.”
It is a story of government policy with humans at its heart. Immigration enforcement officials publish figures that show an increase on Joe Biden’s daily average for deportations in his final year.
The choreography of the crackdown, certainly, is eye-catching. Much of America will applaud.
Not so much, the communities centre-stage.
