HIAS Book and Film Club - January

Join us on Tuesday, January 26 from 7pm-8pm ET (4pm-5pm Pacific) for a discussion of Episode 5 (“The Right Way”) of Netflix’s documentary series Immigration Nation. This episode focuses on the hurdles facing asylum seekers at the U.S. Southern border and refugees within the United States seeking to reunite with their family members.

HIAS staff facilitators will be joined by The Capital Area Immigrants’ Rights Coalition (CAIR), who will give us expert insight into the current state of asylum and immigration detention in the United States, as well as the ways that system has changed over the past few years.
