Immigration and the Plight of Immigrants

Belatedly, I'd like to thank MOJ friend and Duquesne University Law professor, Alison Sulentic, and her colleagues in Duquesne's College of Liberal Arts for hosting an engaging and stimulating conference entitled "Immigration and the Plight of Immigrants:  Politics, Policy, and Morality."  This program, which was held on September 21, was Duquesne's second annual Faith and Politics Symposium. 

Panelists and speakers included law professors, sociologists, bishops, and theologians.  Bishop Tamayo (Loredo, Texas) described Jesus as an immigrant, emigrating from the bosom of the Father and bringing to this earthly home his Trinitarian culture, challenging the civilizations he encountered with that culture.
