Immigration

This post is long overdue, but a while back I went and saw the movie on immigration that Dean had mentioned to us, I forgot the name of the movie(sorry Dean!) but the movie was incredible. It captured the struggle and desire of immigrants in this country fighting for the opportunity to have the same chances and life that citizens have. It also shows the closed minded people that try to prevent immigrants from having that life. I understand that everyone has their own opinion on immigration, and to be honest I'm not even 100% sure of what mine is, but by seeing this movie my eyes were opened and it made me question how I view immigration. The panel after the movie was interesting as well. Some of the audience members had some interesting views on immigration and their personal immigration stories. Overall, the experience was a pleasant surprise, I'm not sure what I was expecting but the movie and panel after surpassed what expectations I did have.  I would recommend the movie to everyone.

  1. I'm glad you enjoyed the panel. The movie is called "The State of Arizona."

  2. That was a fun and eye opening night, we definitely learned a lot from the film and the panel. I'm glad we were able to carpool.
