The photo above was taken shortly after the New Bedford, MA immigration raid, three years ago this weekend.  Marc Fallon witnessed the effects of the raid in his community.  He is a Community Advocate at Catholic Social Services in New Bedford.  He also works with Organization Maya K’chee and is a parish priest in the neighboring town.

In this interview, Father Marc talks about the impact of the infamous March 6, 2007 immigration raid at the Bianco factory. This is the raid that prompted Boston financier Robert Hildreth to step forward and offer bond loan assistance to immigrants who could not afford to pay their bond. It is the raid that started the Bond Fund.
