Citizen Miriam: Santuario

Follow Honduran immigrant Miriam Vargas' quest to avoid deportation from Columbus, Ohio. Ordered by ICE to leave the US after 14 years of residency, and the birth of two daughters, Miriam took sanctuary in a church for nearly three years. Learn about the horrid and dangerous conditions in gang-controlled Honduras neighborhoods, convoluted and xenophobic immigration policies, and her treacherous but increasingly hopeful path to liberty.
