Immigration
panel
The Organization for Latino Awareness will host a panel to discuss immigration and its impact in the United States on Monday, Nov. 23, at 3:15 p.m. in Hedges, The Commons. Panelists include professors, students, and members of the community.
Help Wanted
The Organization for Latino Awareness presents Teatro del Pueblo theatre group on Monday, Nov. 23, at 7 p.m. in Kimmel Theatre. Help Wanted tells the story of impoverished immigrants who go to Minnesota to seek a better life and to help their family in Mexico. Three actors playing multiple roles present scenes depicting life in Mexico, a dangerous border crossing, unionizing efforts, detention by the INS, and demonstrations in support of hotel workers. This satirical piece demonstrates the plight of workers whose labor is needed in Minnesota, but who risk harsh treatment and inequities while trying to fill this need.
