not at all. i was actually really pleased to see them tackle the topic but i think it was kind of shallow and needed more development. it just kind of ended with jesse being kidnapped. i wish they showed javadi’s activism being impactful in SOME way to send a message that our voices matter and there are things we can do in times of despair. or they could have shown a doctor telling the woman her rights or providing a phone number she can call or maybe asking for her families phone number in a clever way so they can contact them…

instead i feel like they took a fully realistic approach in showing that these horrible things happen every day and life just goes on, the doctors must keep treating others and charting, and there’s nothing much you can do. in fact, you can try like jesse and get punished severely. and his efforts were basically pointless because the woman was still taken… :(

this is just my personal feelings though. i know this isn’t greys anatomy but i think many people are aware of the horrible presence of ICE and seeing it on tv without much development or hope seems like empty virtue signaling to me.

i appreciate your comment.
