Los Angeles-area friends and colleagues—Please join us today at 4pm at USC for “Made in América,” a roundtable discussion of the roots and realities of the Central American refugee crisis. We have a great group of panelists: Pablo Alvarado, Director of the National Day Laborer Organizing Network; Laura Carlsen, Director of the America’s Program for the Center for International Policy in Mexico City; and María Cristina García, the Howard A. Newman Professor of American Studies in the Department of History at Cornell University. I hope to see you there.
