Jeanette Vizguerra: Sanctuary in Denver
Jeanette Vizguerra has lived in Denver, Colorado for more than 20 years. She has worked as a labor and community organizer, a business owner, and a mom of 4 kids.
Her story became national news earlier this year when the Trump Administration threatened deportation and she took sanctuary in Denver’s First Unitarian Church. During the 3 months she lived in the church, TIME Magazine recognized her on its list of the 100 Most Influential People in the World, for giving a voice to so many undocumented people.
Chris meets up with Jeanette at the Women's Convention in Detroit to discuss her story, the politics of immigration policy in the Trump era, and how people of good will can help drive change.
