I arrived at midnight on Saturday the 10th and met the other three U.S. immigration attorney volunteers whom I was going to work with for the weekend - Rebecca, Charlene, and Graham. That was the entire legal team for those days for over 5,000 people in the caravan.
People got in lines for food and other basic donations. At first, they were not too interested in hearing attorneys talk. As they began to settle, I grabbed a megaphone and strategically went around the facility to talk to people who were gathered in large groups.
