The Archdiocese of Boston is clashing with a church in Dedham, Massachusetts over a nativity scene with an anti-ICE message.

It has everything you would expect in a nativity scene. There are wise men, animals, and shepherds. But there is something else in the display in front of St. Susanna's Parish in Dedham that is impossible to ignore. In the place of Jesus, Joseph and Mary, stands a sign that reads: "ICE was here." The suggestion being that they were detained by the federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency. A clear commentary on the current political landscape.

Father Stephen Josoma declined an interview with WBZ-TV for this story but told us off camera that the church has long created a nativity scene that speaks to a current humanitarian issue facing the country.
