The Road Ahead for Social Justice: Immigration in Pop Culture
On September 13th at 2pm EST, we continued our Road Ahead for Social Justice series with a conversation about the portrayals of immigrants in popular television shows, and the potential that popular culture presents for transformative change.
We discussed the need for more diverse stories and representation based on findings from our latest research, Power of POP. Guest speakers Bassem Kawar from Take on Hate and Carl Lipscombe from Black Alliance for Just Immigration provided best practices and recommendations for engaging popular culture based on their own advocacy work.
