Portrayed as dignified individuals with dreams and inherent worth
The article uses empathetic framing, quoting the Pope’s emphasis on migrants' dignity and individuality, while including emotional testimony from a rescue captain and high death toll statistics to underscore their suffering.
“"Dear migrants, before saying anything else to you, I want to bow before your dignity," the pope said. "You are not just numbers or files. You are people who have left behind families and homes. You have dreams that no one has the right to despise"”
