Event on Immigration across political spectrum on Nov 15th
by Yael Rosenstock 07 Nov '17

07 Nov '17

Good afternoon, It's time for our 6th annual Innovation Exchange, sponsored by Susheel Kirpalani on November 15th from 4:30-9pm in the Patio Room at Queens College. This year the event is titled, "Trump's First Year: Impressions on Immigration from Across the Political Landscape." Our Innovation Exchange is an opportunity to engage in an evening of discussion, debate, and dialogue on a crucial social issue. We interact with experts who are working to transform the issue from a variety of different perspectives. This year, we will have individuals working on bipartisan immigration legislation and people working on the ground on immigration issues speak before breaking up into groups where everyone can participate. *We encourage everyone attending to RSVP on Eventbrite <https://www.eventbrite.com/e/trumps-first-year-impressions-on-immigration-a…> so we can guarantee enough seats and dinner. Those who RSVP via Eventbrite <https://www.eventbrite.com/e/trumps-first-year-impressions-on-immigration-a…> by Nov 8th are entered into a $25 gift card raffle. **Students, faculty, staff, and community members are welcome and encouraged to attend!* Additionally, we are looking for anyone who can express their personal narratives in relation to immigration to be exhibited at the event. Stories can be about an individual or someone in their family who migrated with or without the documentation, and how they or their family have experienced migration shifts. *We are interested in all perspectives.* We will be collecting submissions in the form of writing, visual arts, and short videos to be displayed at the event. Submissions will be accepted until Nov 9th. Please send all submissions to info(a)cerru.org with subject line: Immigration Narrative. If more time is needed, please let us know.
