April 17 — Immigration: A “Future” Perspective
As immigrants from around the world continue to look towards America as a refuge, how will we deal with their numbers, languages, and cultural differences? What does America, and Indiana, need to do to prepare for the future and effectively deal with the needs of new immigrant communities?
When: Thursday, April 17, 7:00 p.m.
Where: Indiana History Center Basile Theater
In the spring of 2008, the IHS will explore immigration in three separate programs from the perspectives of the past, present, and future. Participants will gain a deeper understanding of how “today’s problems” have actually been debated throughout our state’s and nation’s history. This series will encourage audience members to learn about the historic nature of immigration (and immigration debates), how communities are currently dealing with new immigrants, and what the future holds for America (and Indiana) as larger numbers of immigrants are woven into our society. This final program will bring together community leaders in education, business, and politics to discuss of the future of immigration.
