FLAGSTAFF — Immigration Attorney Susan Maclay will present, “The New Asylum Regime: An Immigration Lawyer’s Perspective,” at 7 p.m. Monday, Sept. 30 at Liberal Arts Building 20, Room 136., Northern Arizona University.

Weaponized asylum law, demonized refugees,  and the closing of the southern border:  The talk will examine the strength and weakness of US asylum law, and trace The United States’  responses to recent border migration through the deployment  of  unprecedented and radical immigration policies like Metering, Migrant Protection Protocols, and the Transit Ban. The speaker  is an asylum and immigration attorney recently  returned from work with asylum seekers in Tijuana.

The presentation is sponsored by Latin American Studies, First Year Experience, Sustainable Communities and NAU—No más muertes. This event is free and open to the public. See flyer below
