FEATURING SASHA CHANOFF – The mayor of a super-wealthy Swiss municipality that has 300 millionaires among its 2000 residents is unwilling to let in Syrian refugees past its borders. Mayor Andreas Glarner would rather pay a $300,000 annual fine than allow brown-skinned refugees fleeing war into his uber-elite enclave.

There are more people fleeing their homes than at any other time in modern history. Yet our leaders and officials seem to not know how to respond. The global refugee crisis is creating a serious moral challenge for world leaders.
