On Thursday evening from Tempe, Arizona, Democratic presidential candidate Julián Castro, the only Latino candidate running for president in 2020, did a town hall on Fox News. The following videos show the complete town hall.
Part 1
Part 2
Part 3
As for reaction to his appearance? It was actually pretty positive if Twitter is any indication:
Did not expect applause from Fox News audience when @JulianCastro talked about the systemic injustice people of color are subjected to by law enforcement. Shows how important it is to make your case to every American. You might come out surprised! #CastroTownHall https://t.co/K47WlpXoxp

@JulianCastro called for the repeal of the Hyde Amendment on FOX NEWS, because a women’s income should not determine whether or not she can have access to an abortion, and in turn healthcare. THATS MY PRESIDENT YALL. #CastroTownhall

The FOX News moderators are trying to break @JulianCastro , but he is demonstrating that he can handle it, this is very important to see, especially for the up coming debates.#CastroTownHall

The moment @JulianCastro addressed community policing and why the SYSTEM has failed our communities by saying, some of, the countless names that have fallen victim to police brutality… Chills. #CastroTownhall #PoliceBrutality #SayTheirNames pic.twitter.com/zn38maclET

My favorite part of the #CastroTownHall was no matter how hard the Fox moderators tried to bait him into attacking other Dem‘s, he did not waver. @JulianCastro showed up to introduce himself to the public, not bash his opponents and I’m proud to call him my candidate #Julián2020
