The Trump administration's drive to detain and deport as many migrants as possible has sowed fear and instability in Michigan communities. Over the last year and a half, journalists and advocates have worked to share information about the government's aggressive enforcement efforts with the goal of providing accountability, transparency and actionable information to communities grappling with a rapidly shifting policy landscape.
Michigan Public's Adam Yahya Rayes will join a panel of Michigan journalists, including Koby Levin (Outlier Media), Lindsey Matson (LMSW, 482Forward), and Christine Sauvé (Michigan Immigrant Rights Center) for a discussion moderated by Briana Rice (Outlier Media).
They'll discuss the challenges and best practices for gathering and disseminating information about the immigration crackdown in Michigan.
This event is hosted by the Society of Professional Journalists (SPJ) Detroit Chapter. This is free event open to the public. The panel will be streamed via Zoom.
