About this Event
Amid a charged election season when political candidates and mainstream media alike are highly focused on immigration, often using xenophobic and dehumanizing rhetoric, there is rarely space to hear from immigrants themselves. In this storytelling/listening session hosted by Voice of Witness and The Women’s Building, we’ll center oral histories and stories from immigrant and refugee community members, as well as share calls to actions to support and stand in solidarity with our neighbors.
This event will leave you more informed, engaged, and equipped to advocate for immigrant justice.
