These people face mistreatment and are labeled as illegal and criminals. Judy speaks on the need to find new ways to formally and systematically recognize undocumented people.
After a brief break, Judy returns to give an update on the Fast For Life being held by the Pastors For Peace. After being denied by the United States government the ability to transport 400 computers to Cuba for medical use, the Pastors For Peace decided to go on a hunger strike and have since been joined by people nationwide in protest of the US government’s ruling.
