Guerrier Antoine traveled through at least 11 countries over the course of nearly a month, braving hostile authorities and violent bandits, being robbed of several years worth of savings, only to end up right back where he started: Haiti's capital Port-au-Prince, where he was born.

Antoine, 43, is just one of thousands of Haitians detained by American authorities at the US-Mexico border and flown home this week.
