Imagine the police targeting and arresting your neighbors simply because they are Latino. Then imagine them parading undocumented immigrants in shackles across town to publicly humiliate them in front of media cameras. Sheriff Joe Arpaio of Arizona's Maricopa County creates dehumanizing scenes like these on a regular basis.
Sheriff Arpaio's flagrant racial profiling tactics could spread beyond Maricopa County unless we send a clear message that they will no longer be tolerated. As Christians, we must speak out against the violation of the basic human dignity of our neighbors, whom Jesus has called us to love.
I have just asked the Department of Justice to investigate Sheriff Arpaio. Will you join me? Just click here:
