On Monday, March 30, students and community members at Eastern Mennonite University held vigil to honor Max Villatoro's story of detention and deportation. Those gathered heard personal stories, lit candles, sang together, and remembered those affected by a broken immigration system. The photos below were taken by Jonathan Bush. First Mennonite Church of Iowa City members Aliese Gingerich and Rachel Schrock organized the vigil. Comments are closed.
