Astrid Dominguez, Advocacy Coordinator for the ACLU of Texas, will serve as a panelist for an immigration webinar "The Road Ahead for Social Justice: Uplifting Border Voices" scheduled for Wed., Feb. 15, at 1 p.m. CST / 2  p.m. EST. Other panelists include Vicki Gaubeca, Director, ACLU-New Mexico Regional Center for Border Rights, and Julie Fisher-Rowe, The Opportunity Agenda.

Amidst the varied political rhetoric we’re all hearing right now, the southern border region finds itself – yet again – in the middle of arguments about immigration, security and policing. Join us the webinar to find out:

  • How organizations working in the region are working to change the conversation about border issues;

  • How to support their work with productive, solutions-oriented messaging;

  • What kinds of messages and language tell a values-based, accurate story about the region, the people living there, and the challenges they face thanks to misplaced priorities.
