“An epic work… a masterpiece” – Amy Goodman, Democracy Now!
The border is everywhere… in the nationwide system built to detain and deport impoverished immigrants; in the businesses that profit from these processes; and in every undocumented person forced to live in fear. But as this vital new documentary shows, immigrants are organizing with others to promote something different, a system that recognizes their many contributions and protects the rights of all.
Screening followed by a discussion with award-winning Director, Pamela Yates, and award-winning producer, Paco de Onís, facilitated by Roger Rouse
