What really drives the immigration debate? It’s people, not politics.

Join us for the “Only in America with Ali Noorani” podcast to hear how Americans from all walks of life and from across the political spectrum are experiencing changes in their communities as a result of immigration.

Faith leaders, law enforcement officials, business owners and others speak openly about the way culture, identity and values are shaping and defining our country, and they offer a constructive way forward in the immigration debate.

The color of our skin and our immigration status dramatically affect how we move through our daily lives in this country. And these two identities, while distinct, are constantly interacting with each other. For our next series, we’re taking a critical look at the complex relationship between racial justice and immigration.

We’ll start out by digging into how race and immigration intersect, and we’ll hear more about the experiences of Black immigrants, who face the dual challenges of America’s immigration system and systemic racism towards Black communities. And we’ll talk about why, ultimately, immigrant justice cannot be separated from racial justice.
