With everything going on at the borders of Poland and Ukraine and continued need to support unaccompanied minors at the border of Mexico and The United States, we reached out to a friend to get a closer narrative to what it means to love our immigrant neighbors. 

This week we talk with Lisa Barrios, a close friend and justice advocate focusing on issues of justice at the borders. She shares a powerful perspective about policy and institutionalized love and embodies individual love and honor for her neighbors. Then we reimagine Leviticus 19 and think about our legal responsibility to love our undocumented neighbors and remember where we’ve been. This conversation grounds why it matters that we honor the dignity of our undocumented or immigrant neighbors. 

Follow Lisa on instagram @__itsbarrios to connect personally.  Let's follow her advice on getting engaged civically in the changes taking place that are effecting our neighbors and our communities.
