America's Love / Hate Relationship with Immigration
Meeting # 3,495 - Peter N. Pero
Today's news events on the break-up of immigrant families, brutal travel , border crossings, and social discrimination, are all common in the media. Yet more than 150 years ago, things were not much different and generally worse. Author Peter Pero will present more than a century of historical evidence. Through political cartoons, public advertising and classic photos, let's reflect on some "bad old days" in America. Are current immigrants doomed to re-live these historic nightmares? Is there good news to share? Join us for some answers.
