Earlier this month, Netflix released a documentary series about ICE’s brutality called, "Immigration Nation".
This harrowing series lays ICE’s abuses bare for the public to see, but it also leaves a lot questions for viewers. What’s happening to families in ICE detention now? What has to be done to end family separation for good? What roles can we play from where we live?
In conversation with activists from across the migrant justice movement, we’ll cover what’s currently happening with family separation, what we have to do as a country to stop this crisis, and the steps you can take to get involved.
Thursday, August 27th at 5 PM PT (8 PM ET)
