Jose Antonio Vargas is an American who is not legally an American. He does not have papers. He came to the US from the Philippines as a boy, was raised here, went to college, became a famous journalist, and then in 2011 revealed his true status to the public. In 2013, he released a documentary, Documented, about his undocumented life and political challenges. This year, he was arrested and (amazingly) released by immigration officers in Texas. Tonight, he is a guest speaker at the Social Justice Film Festival. If you want to see what an American hero really looks like, go to the screening and the talk that follows.
