When we talk about migration, too often, the conversation overlooks the humanity and experiences of the people impacted. Popular rhetoric about the “border crisis” and political stunts like the busing of migrants only makes this worse. FCNL’s February Quaker Changemaker Event will feature a conversation about faith and community work on the border and across the nation.
Register to join our conversation on Thursday Feb. 23 at 8:00 p.m. EST. Register here. Learn More.
This event will feature the following speakers:
Anika Forrest, FCNL Legislative Director for Domestic Policy
Jennifer Long, Co-Executive Director at Casa Marianella, a shelter and community center on the U.S.-Mexico border
Bridget Moix, FCNL General Secretary
Hear their reflections following a recent trip to the U.S.-Mexico border and learn more about how community centers across the nation are working to support just migration.
In peace,
Clare Carter
