Family Belongs Together Rally at Daley Center – Video (participation) by Kevin & Joann Murphy-Spotlighting Southeast Chicago

Good morning.   This video (https://youtu.be/OZJz0p3zNxs) is for those of us who remember the horror that we felt at learning — at the end of World War II —  of the Nazi death camps, and for those younger Americans who may still be human.

 An estimated 50,000 citizens participated in the rally at Chicago’s Daley Center to protest the separation of immigrant families by the current U.S. government.  Citizen protestor/documentarian, Joann Podkul Murphy, was there, and this video is the result of her participation.
She went there to participate, saw important visual moments, and had the good fortune to have a small pocket camera with her.  We left the rough bits in, because that is what happens when one does front-line documentation with limited equipment.
