Immigrants in the Time of Racial Unrest, Pandemic, and Trump
Join us in a conversation between activist Jose Antonio Vargas and immigration lawyer Lourdes Tancinco on the challenges facing immigrants as the United States meets headwinds of heightened racial intolerance and the deadly pandemic. They will discuss the prospects for DACA dreamers and other Trump immigration policies (green cards issued abroad, working visas, and foreign students stranded by the virus).

In the Philippines, Tuesday August 11, 9 a.m.
