– The impact of immigrants on economic, social and cultural conditions;
– Similarities and differences between Americans from diverse backgrounds;
– Integration and assimilation enablers and inhibitors;
– Media coverage and public perceptions of immigration and immigrants;

Audience members will receive resources for exploring these issues in greater depth and suggestions for how they can use these films to stimulate dialogue in their own communities.
