Immigrants in Michigan: The Untold Story
School of Social Work ENGAGE Virtual Discussion
Immigrants have made great contributions to this state--economically, politically, and socially. The fabric of American society has been woven by the contributions of diverse immigrants. And yet, as a nation, we continue to suppress and demonize these immigrants. This session explores the story of immigrants in Michigan, a story that we, as social workers, are obligated to know.
Special guests include Fayrouz Saad, executive director of the Office of Global Michigan; Wojciech Zolnowski, executive director of the International Institute; Fatou Seydi-Sarr, executive director and founder of the African Bureau for Immigrant and Social Affairs; and Laura Sanders, lecturer at the School of Social Work and founder of the Washtenaw Immigration Rights Coalition.
