Episode 22: Immigration, Detention and Torture

Guests this week include Patricia Davis, Board President of Torture Abolition and Survivors Support Coalition (TASSC); Emily Tucker, Policy and Advocacy Director for Detention Watch Network, and; Frantz Gedinev of Families for Freedom, who survived torture as an undocumented immigrant in the U.S. Due to the violent nature of human rights abuses that we will discuss, listener discretion is advised.

*The Journey Toward Phoenix* is a weekly radio blog intended to inform, entertain and inspire those who are attending or may attend Justice GA 2012, and to create a national dialogue about what Unitarian Universalists are doing in their local communities relative to the UUA theme of "Immigration as a Moral Issue".

The host of *The Journey Toward Phoenix* is Rev. Carlton Elliott Smith, one of three ministers serving the Unitarian Universalist Church of Arlington, Virginia. He is a member of both the Resources "Brain Trust" and the Program Development Group for Justice GA 2012.
