Immigration and Racism: Changing Narratives, Changing Systems

Saturday, Apr 16, 2016, 1:45 pm

Our current immigration system is broken and biased toward class and race. We’ve heard the phrase “get in line” but what does the road to citizenship look like for immigrants? Where do our Presidential candidates stand on immigration issues? There are many misconceptions about immigrants in the US., but who are they really? Join us in learning about the people who are directly affected by immigration policies and how your voice can be part of the national immigration movement. Together, we can change the narrative and bring systematic change.
