A Witness at the Border inaugural book club event - we will be discussing "The Undocumented Americans" by Karla Cornejo Villavicencio.
The author was a DACA recipient when she decided to write about being undocumented for the first time using her own name. It was right after the election of 2016, the day she realized the story she'd tried to steer clear of was the only one she wanted to tell. So she wrote her immigration lawyer's phone on her hand in Sharpie and embarked on a trip across the country to tell the stories of her fellow undocumented immigrants--and to find the hidden key to her own.
We will also be debuting Witness Radio, a podcast hosted and directed by Sarah Towle and produced by Livia Brock.
