Would you not agree that 'migrant' dehumanizes them? Given the connotations that come with the word.

Also, much of what I hear repeated is simply what the media feeds us. We are told they are migrants instead of refugees. Many of them are travelling from countries that have been ravaged by war in recent years. Libya, Syria, etc

We know next to nothing of their circumstances or what them might be going through. Instead we classify them as second class human beings.
