Update as of June 2018: To protect the privacy of the people in this story, especially the minors, we’ve removed the pictures form this page. Also, Paul and Melissa Frantz have recently asked that we share the following statement from them about the episode (which is meant to be the first in a series about the family). Hey Strangers. We know that this show resonated with many people and we have been moved by the feedback that so many folks have shared with us. We want to specifically acknowledge the People of Colour raised by White People that reached out to us. Thank you. One of the reasons we agreed to this project was to have a record of what was going on during this time and to tell a different kind of story of family. It was for our kids: (more…) Three stories about Mexican immigration, showing us that there are two sides to the border fence, but many sides to the story. On this episode, we find some unlikely bedfellows among liberals and conservatives, even immigrants and the border patrol. These stories come to us from the wonderful shows, “State of the Re:Union” and “UnFictional.” Also check out “Reveal” w Laura Starecheski of “State of the Re:Union” at the U.S./Mexican border. —Photo by Bob TorrezPabba's 32nd Year

It’s a new year, a time for hope or worry, for regrets or new plans, a time to count our blessings or pick up the pieces. Last year around this time, as 2016 was just beginning, Jared and Sharry in Utah were tremendously excited about the year ahead, but things did not work out as they’d hoped, to say the least.
