Questions surrounding immigration are regular parts of the news cycle these days. We hear stories of immigrants being harassed, detained and deported. We hear stories of families separated.
Many of us may not have the opportunity to talk to immigrants about their experiences. KUOW created a space for those questions recently at an “Ask An Immigrant” event in Bellevue.
KUOW’s ‘Ask A…’ events create a safe and respectful environment for people to explore each other’s views.
We set up one-on-one conversations for six minutes. After that, a bell rings, chairs are swapped and another conversation begins. At the end, we host a group discussion and a meal.
This “Ask An Immigrant” event took place at Resonance at SOMA Towers on July 22. See pictures from this event at our Facebook page.
