Last week Rev. James Eliud Mwangi was taken by ICE after returning home from work and is now confirmed to be held in a detention center in Conroe.
If you live in Texas I heavily urge you to call your congressional district and advocate for his freedom!

The Martyrs of Memphis
When yellow fever hit Memphis in 1878, thousands died and thousands fled. A few stayed behind, and their brave deeds cost them their lives. This story is part of our Memphis at 200 collection.
