America has long been a nation of immigrants. Many people who leave their homes to come to this country are simply seeking a life of freedom and safety. This panel discussion aims to explore current immigrant experiences, discussing barriers, struggles, joys, and successes. Other topics to be addressed include: the urgent situation faced by many immigrants when they arrive here, the lengthy struggles faced by immigrants after arrival, and what each of us can do to stand up against hate and support our neighbors.

Panelists include: Marius, a Togolese asylum seeker; Sonia Terbullino, Cosecha activist; Catherine Ramirez Mejia, MIRA Coalition; and Jane Hucks, co-chair of Merrimack Valley Project’s Immigrant Justice Committee. The discussion will be facilitated by Cantor Vera Broekhuysen, Temple Emanu-El of Haverhill.
