Join us for a transformative five-day course that explores the complex narratives of migration and the human experiences at the US-Mexico border. Through powerful documentary screenings, engaging discussions, and hands-on workshops, participants will uncover the personal stories often lost. We will view three impactful documentary films They Call Me The Cross Man, Food Chains, and Shura, which highlight the lives of migrants and the humanitarian efforts supporting them. Participants will learn how to become active welcomers in their communities, foster inclusivity for refugees and newcomers, and learn about two activities that promote awareness and serve a purpose: “The Voices from the Border Quilt Project” and assembling personal hygiene kits for migrants. This course provides a small exhibit emphasizing understanding migrants' rights and their societal contributions while encouraging critical reflection on compassion, resilience, and social justice themes. Together, we will commit to fostering hope and humanity in our communities. Join us for this vital conversation and movement for a more compassionate world.
