Open to CUID holders.
Join Nina Alvarez, CBS Assistant Professor of International Journalism, and Professor Robe Imbriano, Director of Ira A. Lipman Center For Journalism and Civil and Human Rights, for a Q&A discussion and the premiere of "Almost American," a documentary about a Salvadorian-American family's fight to stay together — on the streets, and in federal court.
Co-produced and co-reported by Professor Alvarez and Caterina Barbera-Kipreos, '18 M.S. Documentary, the film provides a rare behind-the-scenes look at how those who claim to be committed to the rule of law are willing to set it aside to achieve their goals.
Q&A: 9:30-10 pm.
Documentary Screening: 10-11:30 pm.
VOCES “Almost American” will premiere on PBS, PBS.org and the PBS App. Directed by Nina Alvarez.
