- Summary:
- Stop Time tells the story of Lucio Pérez-a father, husband and worker who took sanctuary in a Massachusetts church for over three years in defiance of a deportation order. Lucio's moving narrative provides a window into the forces that brought him to the United States, entangled him in the immigration system, and ultimately led him to sanctuary. The historical context of migration to the United States and the different tactics used to win more fair immigration policy are developed as an important part of the story, as Lucio works with faith leaders, activists, and immigration lawyers to find the best way forward.
