Description

Immigrants to the United States are facing increasing pressure and scrutiny in their quest to move to the United States and pursue the American dream. This Tough Talk, by exploring weekly sub-topics, will provide an opportunity to hear some the stories of immigrants as well as explore the political hot button the immigration to the United States has become. How difficult is it to immigrate to the United States? Are people being deported and what is the impact on students and children who may not even have known they were not citizens? Please feel free to come to one session or all and join the conversation on this important topic. The last week of the Tough Talk will coincide with International Education Week!

Weekly topics include:

  • Who are the immigrants?
  • Why a travel ban?
  • What would a wall do?
  • Immigration: It is not as easy as you think
