Are you busy tomorrow night? There's a film airing on TV that you can't miss!
The mass incarceration of immigrants will be brought to light tomorrow night, Tuesday, October 18th, as part of PBS's award-winning Frontline series. Acclaimed journalist, Maria Hinojosa, will expose the devastating consequences of our country's failed immigration policy in her new documentary, Lost in Detention.

The astonishing and unprecedented footage in this documentary has the power to change how people understand the immigration crisis overall, starting with highly criticized S-Comm, the Secure Communities program. That's why we've got to do everything we can to make the viewing a huge success.
Maria Hinojosa recently sat down with our friends at Presente.org to talk about her new piece. Check out this interview and when you're done, please post this video on Facebook and Twitter. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tl_RJyEK2Co
And don't forget to watch "Lost In Detention" tomorrow night, Tuesday, October 18th. Click here for more information and to find your local listing. You will be joined by people all around the country and immigrant rights groups, who will use this day to demand an end to S-Comm. It will be powerful, and it will send an unmistakable message to the media and to the Obama Administration that we are watching. Don't forget to tune in tomorrow evening, Tuesday, October 18th.
