Join CGRS on Wednesday March 1 for the San Francisco premiere of Seeking Asylum, a documentary film that bears witness to the endless obstacles people seeking asylum face in their pursuit of refuge in the United States. In a dismantled system that has been designed for failure, the film follows the journey of Kensy, a Honduran mother, as she searches for protection for her family.
This important film shines a light on the courageous people at the center of CGRS’s advocacy. Join us at the Strand Theater for an exclusive screening followed by a panel moderated by KQED’s Immigration Senior Editor Tyche Hendricks and featuring the film’s creators from Honeypot Productions, CGRS Director Professor Karen Musalo, Professor Bill Ong Hing, Rev. Deborah Lee of the Interfaith Movement for Human Integrity, and leaders from Mujeres Unidas y Activas. Panelists will discuss the most urgent challenges facing asylum seekers at the border and in the Bay Area today, including the Biden administration’s newly announced asylum ban.
Date: Wednesday, March 1, 2023
Time: 6:00-9:00 pm PST
Location: The Strand Theater, 1127 Market St, San Francisco, CA 94103
Register online here and RSVP on Facebook!
