  • Summary

  • Episode Note

    This episode is part of a series of talks and panel discussions recorded during the breakout sessions of our Othering & Belonging Conference that took place in Oakland this past April. This session is titled "Xenophobia, Resistance, and the Future of the Immigrant Rights Movement." It includes panelists Annette Wong, who is the Managing Director of Programs at Chinese for Affirmative Action; Karim Golding, founder of the Law Library; Lawrence Benito, who is the executive director of the Illinois Coalition for Immigrant and Refugee Rights; and Carlos Perea, who is the Executive Director of the Harbor Institute for Immigrant and Economic Justice. It was moderated by Tracy La, the Executive Director of VietRISE. The panelists share lessons they learned from their years of organizing in the immigrant rights movement, the changing faces of xenophobia in the context of migration, and stories of local communities challenging traditional notions of representation and belonging by winning the right to vote for noncitizens. This session was curated by Tracy La, OBI's Rio Gonzalez, the OBI Network for Transformative Change. You can find more episodes from this series on our website at belonging.berkeley.edu/whobelongs.
