Today, we focus on migration. In fall of 2020, CLACS and UW-Madison’s Latin American, Caribbean and Iberian Studies Program had a\u00a0Migration Webinar Series<\/a>, with one conversation entitled\u00a0Crossing Borders, Navigating Race: Blackness and Migration in the Americas. That conversation, moderated by\u00a0Ermitte Saint Jacques<\/a>\u00a0(Department of African and African Diaspora Studies) is\u00a0available on YouTube<\/a>\u00a0and discusses\u00a0Haitian migrants to the U.S., Afro-Cubans in South Florida, and Senegalese migrants in Argentina.<\/p>\n

Nadja Drost,\u00a0a Pulitzer grantee<\/a>, has a piece entitled “What Migrants Face as They Journey Through the Deadly Dari\u00e9n Gap<\/a>” which focuses on migrants from Asia, the Middle East, Africa, and Haiti in their treacherous journey between Colombia and Panama. This piece was presented by Drost in our 2020 Summer Teacher Institute, which focused on\u00a0“Under-Reported Stories from Latin America.<\/a>“<\/p>\n

The\u00a0Constitutional Rights Foundation<\/a>\u00a0has a section of their “Educating About Immigration<\/a>” project called “Refugees from the Caribbean: Cuban and Haiti “Boat People<\/a>“‘ which includes background on the situations in which Cuban and Haitian migration may occur, and an activity to ask your students to consider what US policy should be towards Cuban and Haitian refugees.<\/p>\n
