Event details
Sanctuary - Philadelphia minister offering sanctuary to animmigrant says when laws break the backs of God's people, timeto mull "breaking those laws". The Rev. Robin Hynicka and hiscongregation are certainly circumventing U.S. immigration lawby sheltering an illegal immigrant inside the Arch St.Methodist Church in Philadelphia. But Rev. Hynicka answers to ahigher law. He says the immigration policy ordering thedeportation of Javier Flores Garcia is unjust – a law Godgives him the power to question. And he's not the only clericin the U.S. who feels and acts this way. As Scott Pelleyreports, Arch St. Methodist is just one of more than 800churches and synagogues offering sanctuary to illegalimmigrants in response to the new crackdown ordered by theTrump administration. Cook County Jail - Cook County SheriffTom Dart runs one of the largest jails in the country, locatedin Chicago. But it's his unconventional and controversial stylethat puts him in the spotlight.Enemy of the State - Art that'srelevant is political, says provocative Chinese artist AiWeiwei. Ai Weiwei's work has gotten him harassed by police,thrown in detention and driven out of the country. But in orderto be relevant, he must be political, as he tells HollyWilliams. The acclaimed artist has left China and is nowstaying in Germany, he says, out of concern for the safety ofhis young son. But he doesn't rule out moving back to China,where authorities tried to censor his work, which theyconsidered subversive. In one famous piece, he photographedhimself giving the middle finger to a portrait of China'srevered former dictator Mao Zedong.
