Description<\/h5>\n
How can we respond to immigration policies through writing? \u00a0How can we be allies with immigrants who are undocumented? \u00a0This presentation will explore these questions and writing projects at an immigration detention center: letters, petitions, and op-eds. \u00a0Over 3 million people have been deported since 2008, and because of a mandate from Congress in 2009, over 200 detention centers, mostly run by private corporations, hold 34,000 detainees\/day at a cost to taxpayers of $120\/day. \u00a0We need to give more attention to the fact that not everyone has the ability to become a citizen and some students do not have the same legal protections.<\/p>\n
