Join JUFJ and allies for a June 15 film screening and dessert reception!
  Long before Arizona, Virginia's Prince William County became ground zero in America's explosive battle over immigration policy when it started requiring police to question anyone they had "probable cause" to suspect of being an undocumented immigrant.  The acclaimed film, 9500 Liberty, documents the debate and profound effects of this policy on communities in our region.  The documentary follows the national anti-immigration forces who frighten and intimidate local lawmakers and citizens, and the residents who resist by using YouTube videos and virtual townhalls to set up a real-life showdown in the seat of county government.
