Royal Wedding Preacher Michael Curry: Trump's 'Cruel' Child Separation Policy 'Violates' Christianity
By Tom Porter On 6/24/18 at 7:12 AM


Bishop Michael Curry, who shot to global renown after delivering a sermon at the wedding of Prince Harry and Meaghan Markle, has described President Trump’s immigrant detention policies as a “national shame.”

In an editorial in The Observer , titled "How can America call itself a Christian country if it treats children like this?" Curry writes: “The families making treacherous and often dangerous journeys to seek refuge in the US are desperate. They face extreme violence, persecution and poverty in their home countries. You cannot deter people who are fleeing for their lives, even with policies as cruel as taking children away from their parents."
