Frontline investigates violent reality awaiting deported Haitians

On this edition of Your Call, Frontline correspondent Sebastian Walker joins us to discuss Haiti Deportation Crisis, a new documentary about the impact of gang violence in Haiti, the efforts to combat it, and the rising fears among Haitians in the US after the Trump administration ended Temporary Protected Status for 350,000 people.

Walker and filmmaker Adam Desiderio went to Haiti and Springfield, Ohio, where Haitians are being tracked with ankle monitors.
