A NATION OF IMMIGRANTS
Presented by IlluminArt
 
“A Nation of Immigrants” is a short play that debates sound bites we pick up from news outlets, at home, and from discussions around our communities. The characters discuss their impressions and personal experiences concerning undocumented workers as well as refugees. In the context of the confusion over current policies and potential worries, the characters share their own family immigration stories, raise questions for discussion, and come to the realization that perhaps they have more to learn before they form their opinions on the subjects.
