No Person Is Illegal— Ask an Undocumented Citizen w. Jose Antonio Vargas
Description
With the election a week away, polls show immigration is a top issue for voters even though most Americans have no idea how our immigration system actually works, or how much our society depends on the contributions of immigrants, both documented and not. This week, Sarah sits down with Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and founder of Define American, Jose Antonio Vargas to break down some of the legal and personal barriers facing undocumented Americans. From limits on sponsoring family’s visas to how racism informs our perception of immigration, Jose highlights just how much humanity is missing from this discourse.
