Show Notes

Every year, with bipartisan support, half a million people are locked up in prisons and detention centers while the government decides whether they'll be allowed to stay in the United States. Law professor César Cuauhtémoc García Hernández explains how we got here and why we can do better. This talk was filmed at TEDxMileHigh. All TEDx events are organized independently by volunteers in the spirit of TED's mission of ideas worth spreading.
