Yet, this summer's shameful headlines may offer an opportunity for change. With each new offence, we're reminded that international travel is a privilege.
Nowhere has this inherent truth been more evident recently than in Hawaii. As the deadliest wildfires in modern US history tore through parts of Maui (one of the most popular tourism destinations in the US), thousands of beach-seekers have continued to fly in, with one local telling the BBC that tourists were swimming in the "same waters that our people died in three days ago".

Does 'inherent truth" refer to "international travel is a privilege"?
