#1. Sweeping Immigration Bill  

As promised by President Biden, a way forward for undocumented immigrants to become U.S Citizens has been presented. NPR reports that the U.S. Citizenship Act of 2021 includes a fast-track process for immigrants who were brought to the country by their parents at a young age (otherwise known as “DREAMers”), certain farmworkers and past recipients of temporary protected status, such as people who fled wars.

“I look forward to working with leaders in the House and Senate to address the wrongdoings of the past administration and restore justice, humanity, and order to our immigration system,” Biden said in a statement Thursday afternoon. “This is an important first step in pursuing immigration policies that unite families, grow and enhance our economy, and safeguard our security.”

#2. Hotel Rwanda Star Jailed 

Paul Rusesabagina’s family and lawyers are saying that the man who inspired the movie “Hotel Rwanda” was abducted overseas, and jailed in Rwanda. AlJazeera reports that he is a longtime critic of Rwandan President Paul Kagame. Rusesabagina has been living in Belgium for years, then he suddenly  appeared in Rwanda under arrest in October. If convicted, Rusesabagina  faces a maximum of 25 years in prison.

#3. MTVAfrica Awards Postponed

The MTV Africa Awards scheduled to be held virtually in Kampala, Uganda have been postponed. CGTN Africa reports that the Awards were going to be held virtually after a 4-year hiatus on February 20. An official reason has not been given as to when the new date is or why the Awards are being postponed.
