I recently received an email of a Jewschool post: It’s Our Turn to Help
Hundreds of undocumented immigrants suffering under Agriprocessors’s labor practices were detained after a raid at Agriprocessors (Rubashkin’s) in Postville, Iowa. Many of their families have turned to the local Catholic church listed below for food and shelter.
I found some local newspaper articles on the tragedy on the site of fellow blogger, Steg:
