America cannot long remain free, nor first among nations, if it becomes the kind of place where universities are dismantled because they don't align politically with the current head of the government.

TEACHABLE MOMENT
Superman entered without inspection. This means that:
A) He cannot get status by marrying Lois Lane.
B) He is the victim of crimes, so U visa, but the wait is 15 (?) years(ish)!
C) ICE will argue he is not eligible to even ask for bond.
D) No DACA eligibility (it’s closed anyway)

Some state medical schools will no longer host a speaker like me who professes immigrants are people with human dignity because it might anger their state legislature. So, I now accept speaking invitations from student groups of any size. Disrupt the #spiralofsilence
