Episcopal Church, Trump and Afrikaners

The Episcopal Church says it will not assist with the resettlement of white South Africans and will end its government partnership to support refugees. The church's presiding bishop, Sean Rowe, explains why.
The announcement comes shortly after 49 South Africans arrived in the U.S. for resettlement under a fast-tracked refugee program.
The refugees were admitted to the U.S. after an executive order from President Trump, and under an expedited and unconventional process for the U.S. refugee resettlement program.
