The Role of the Arts in the Immigrant Justice Movement

The immigrant justice movement needs a multi-pronged approach to achieve systemic change, and narrative change is a key part of this. This webinar will explore the various approaches artists use to influence the narrative about immigration and how they use stories to build power in the immigrant justice movement. Artists inspire, dare to imagine diverse possibilities, celebrate victories, call for accountability, and reveal hidden truths. Join our panelists as they discuss how their work helps build the broader narrative of immigrant justice while honoring every person’s human dignity.
