WorldCanvass begins its tenth season of internationally focused discussions on October 9 with "The Politics and Impact of Immigration." Arguments over reasonable and desirable immigration legislation and the control of U.S. borders have long vexed the political class, policy makers, and the American public, but they've become extraordinarily polarizing under the heightened rhetoric of recent years. WorldCanvass will explore, from diverse and often divergent points of view, the complexities that make the immigration discussion so nuanced and difficult.
The live event takes place October 9 from 5:30-7 p.m. at MERGE, 136 South Dubuque Street.
We invite you to come at 5 and join us for a pre-show catered reception!
