Crossing Borders
Episode 3 of Speak Now, a Series on Political Polarization
Friday, March 19, 2021, 4:30pm
EDT
Event Overview
Months after the 2020 election, this country feels more divided than ever. Today’s youth have only ever experienced a fractured America, rife with ideological polarization that corrodes our ability to listen to and understand voices different from our own. Such division not only threatens democracy and political stability, but also our ability to help those in this country who need it most.
“Speak Now,” a four-part speaker series from the Cornell Advocacy Project, will address this divide, exploring the role of empathy in rehabilitating hostile spaces. Through the insight of an experienced advocate, each session will equip attendees with rhetorical techniques and productive strategies for engaging in political discourse, advocacy, and activism in an increasingly polarized age.
In “Crossing Borders,” the third episode in this series, Stephen Yale-Loehr, Professor of Immigration Law Practice at Cornell Law School, will discuss how issues of immigration have fractured along party lines — and how we can reverse that trend.
This event is hosted by the Cornell Advocacy Project and co-sponsored by Cornell Law School, Cornell ILR School, and the Cornell Migrations Initiative.
