Episode 178 - Pick and Choose talks about how the United States of America picks and chooses who they want as refugees. Haitian people were blatantly mistreated when they reached the border in Texas looking for a safe haven. They were 15,000 strong at a campsite under the International Del Rio Bridge in Texas. In a matter of days, all 15,000 Haitian people were gone. Where did they go so quickly? No one is talking about it and inquiring minds want to know.
