United Methodist Task Force on Immigration Bishop Minerva Carcaño, chair, 1550 E. Meadowbrook Ave, Phoenix, AZ 85014 | (602) 266-6956 or 1-800-229-8622 p. 1 of 55 Dear United Methodist Friends, On behalf of the United Methodist Immigration Task Force I want to thank you for walking compassionately with our immigrant brothers and sisters, and for your willingness to host a screening of the film, Made in LA. Made in LA is the story of three immigrant women, who have come to Los Angeles to work in the garment industry out of a desire to better care for their families. In the end, these women discover the power of their collective voice as they stand together in unity against exploitation by the retailer, Forever 21. The story beautifully illustrates the courage, perseverance, and strength that these women show daily in caring for their families, contributing to their communities, organizing to overcome exploitation, and building a life that is both inspiring and challenging. I pray that you and members of your faith community will watch this important film with open hearts and open minds. Attached you will find materials that will help you organize and publicize a screening of the film in your community. We hope these materials will help equip you to lead a discussion of the film. We are also including two of the immigration resolutions of The United Methodist Church along with discussion questions specifically designed for them.

    Pre-Presidential Speeches

    Pre-Presidential Speeches • Luncheon Honoring Philippine Generals Santos & Valdez, Manila [January 1939] Our honored guests, this noon, have been the two senior officers of the Philippine Army practically from the date of its founding. No one could possibly be more familiar with the work they have done during the past three years, with the energy, the thought, the character, they have devoted to their duties, than myself. It is for this reason that I felt privileged to ask you to meet with me today in tribute to them, at the moment when one of them leaves the Army to assume another important position in the service of his people, while the other moves up to shoulder the responsibilities of the highest military post. Recently, I attended a movie in which one obstreperous female character asserted, each time she opened her mouth, that she spoke for two million club-women of the United States. Unlike that person, I am not authorized to speak for any group or sect, for any military or civil organization, or even for any individual except only Ike Eisenhower. But to my own opinions as to the loyalty, abilities and worthwhile accomplishments of Generals Santos and Valdez in the Philippine Army, I can and do give the most emphatic expression. Confirmation of my convictions can be found in every district, every city, every barrio of the Philippines. Slow but steady development of a real defensive force, progress toward greater unification of a people through intermingling in training station, better physiques among the trainees, greater observance of rules of health and hygiene and, finally, a definitely enhancing appreciation of the requirements of democratic citizenship, are but a few of the accomplishments traceable wholly or in part to the gradual unfolding of the defense plan.
