Immigrant Takes Refuge in Chicago Church

MJ talks about Elvira Arellano, 31, who’s been holed up for almost a year at the Aldalberto United Methodist Church with the support of the congregation’s pastor. Her son, Saul, is an American citizen.

She talks a little bit about the death threats they’ve received on their youtube account for putting up their blogs for borders videos up. A gang member from Elvira’s neighborhood actually had the nerve to do that.

Here is the Freedom Folks Blog. If you haven’t gone there to see the incredible work that Jake and MJ are doing, make sure you drop in.
