Director of Immigration Project to speak
Tuesday, October 31, noon-1pm
Central Library of Rochester and Monroe County, Gleason Auditorium
WHAT: A talk on immigration with a review of the book Enrique’s Journey by Sonia Nazzario as the starting point. This is a gripping, visceral work of non-fiction about a teenage Honduran boy who journeys alone north to the U.S. to try to reunite with his mother. It is almost an epic adventure. If he overcomes the risks, what awaits him as an illegal immigrant in the U.S.? Is his story unique? Our reviewer shares his perspective on the book gained from twenty-five years practicing immigration law.
Free, Open to the public. You are welcome to bring your lunch or purchase one at the library.
WHO: Reviewer is Walter Ruehle, Director of the Immigration Project of the Legal Aid Society
Program is sponsored by The Friends of the Rochester Public Library. For more information, please call 428-8350 before 10:00 am Tuesday.
Seating limited to first 180 attendees.
