Coming in April

On Thursday, April 4th, we’ll present
UC Berkeley’s Alex Saragoza
on the present and future of our
Southern border crisis

Millions of people desperately want to enter this country and are willing to make great sacrifices to get here. Are they persecuted people fleeing gangs? Desperate refugees seeking a better life? Criminals on the run? Potential soldiers for US drug cartels? A mix of all of the above and more?

How broken is our immigration system and its policies?

On April 4th, Alex M. Saragosa, UC Berkeley professor emeritus, writer and lecturer, will bring us up close to these and other pressing questions in The Southern Border Crisis: Its Meaning and Possible Future.

With often contradictory reports coming to us, this program will strive for clarity on this most important issue.
