00:00:00.360 --> 00:00:04.530
Normally, the playgrounds are
full of children.
2
00:00:05.219 --> 00:00:09.050
The cabines all around us here
have families living in them.
3
00:00:09.660 --> 00:00:12.539
There's life, there singing,
sometimes there'll be people
4
00:00:12.606 --> 00:00:14.849
here from the Congo, at the
same time, there'll be people
5
00:00:14.916 --> 00:00:20.760
from Southeast Asia, from Burma
and people here from other countries,
6
00:00:20.826 --> 00:00:22.730
mixed together and those
children playing together.
7
00:00:22.796 --> 00:00:27.809
That's normal at Jubilee for most
of the past thirty seven years.
8
00:00:28.679 --> 00:00:34.320
Right now, we're in a
very sad, abnormal time,
9
00:00:35.159 --> 00:00:40.890
thanks to the executive order
of President Trump cutting off
10
00:00:40.956 --> 00:00:44.159
all of the entry of the
refugees
11
00:00:44.759 --> 00:00:46.890
for at least the next four months.
12
00:00:47.310 --> 00:00:52.859
We don't know beyond that
and there is a growing
13
00:00:52.926 --> 00:00:55.079
kind of fear of refugees.
14
00:00:55.146 --> 00:00:59.789
And of course, this is
not just in the United States,
15
00:00:59.856 --> 00:01:03.710
sometimes it's around Europe
and other parts of the world as well.
16
00:01:04.890 --> 00:01:08.189
But right now it's especially
intense in the United States,
17
00:01:09.000 --> 00:01:13.650
because the people who have
these fears and
18
00:01:14.129 --> 00:01:17.370
negative stereotypes about who
those refugees are,
19
00:01:17.436 --> 00:01:19.439
they're terrorists or something.
20
00:01:20.219 --> 00:01:23.760
They do not understand the
reality of the fact that
21
00:01:23.826 --> 00:01:27.239
these people, these beautiful
children and women and men
22
00:01:27.840 --> 00:01:31.700
are themselves more often than not,
they're the victims of terrorism.
