America’s Immigration Debate

Diversity from immigration keeps cities alive, former Senator Bill Bradley (D-NJ) and other leaders assert in this program; opposing views are also presented, thus summarizing America’s immigration debate with mixed evaluations of its capacity for change. Using commentary from several experts—including Michael Teitelbaum, vice chair of the U.S. Commission on Immigration Reform, and Margie McHugh, executive director of the New York Immigrant Coalition—this program studies the isolation of ethnic communities, the shifting of racial definitions, and America’s lack of an infrastructure to support immigrant integration. (26 minutes)
