Immigration: How We Got Here, A Better Path Forward

People for People, a growing group of neighbors, friends, churchgoers, farmers, small business owners, teachers, and simply concerned citizens in the Fond du Lac (WI) area, began meeting last fall to discuss concerns about ICE raiding U.S. communities. They also wanted to better understand the County Sheriff’s 287(g) Warrant Service Officer (WSO) agreement with the Department of Homeland Security.
The group has spent months educating themselves and others on the many aspects of immigration and border policies, immigration law, the role of immigration enforcement, and the real stories of human struggle. They are proud to offer a free, in-person presentation to the public titled, Immigration: How We Got Here, A Better Path Forward.
This will be presented by Kat Griffith on Thursday, May 21 at 6 pm in Founders Hall of the Congregation of Sisters of St. Agnes Motherhouse, 320 County Road K, Fond du Lac, WI.
Kat Griffith has given versions of this presentation to a wide variety of audiences in Wisconsin and beyond, including numerous civic and political organizations, churches, Ripon College’s Center for Politics and the People, WisconsinEye, the League of Women Voters (local and national), and college classes. Her background includes a number of years living and working in Latin America, many years as a Spanish-English interpreter for immigrants and asylum seekers, and a background in public policy, economics, and communications. She has been active on immigration policy since the 1980s, is currently a Fond du Lac County Board Supervisor, and is committed to bipartisanship and respectful dialogue across political differences.
