Summary/Abstract: This article analyzes international and multicultural migration at the Mexico-United States border during President Biden's administration, focusing on the increase in African and Asian migrants, particularly Chinese, in the Tijuana-San Diego region. The central question is: what is the context of multicultural migration within the framework of the largest human mobility event in North America? Utilizing data from the United States Customs and Border Protection (USCBP) and Mexico's National Institute of Migration (INM), the study identifies patterns and trends in human mobility and the predominant nationalities among detained migrants. The findings reveal a migration crisis with new human mobilities involving over 45 nationalities. Biden's human rights-centered immigration policy has encouraged greater border crossings. The study highlights the growing migratory diversity, the impacts of Biden's policies, and the emerging humanitarian and security challenges, underscoring the need for inclusive and secure policies.
