SUMMARY:Politics in the Park! Theme: Education
DESCRIPTION:Politics in the Park is back for spring!We’re kicking off a new season and trying something new. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEach week\, we’ll share a one-word prompt to spark conversation in our community. Think of it as a starting point: bring your own questions\, your own take\, your own topics. The prompt is just the seed\, you grow the discussion. \n\n\n\nApril’s prompts:Week 1: LocalWeek 2: EducationWeek 3: (off week)Week 4: Justice \n\n\n\nThis season we’re going deeper\, not wider. Instead of being out every day\, we’ll be at the parks twice a week\, giving us more time to develop new programs while still keeping the conversation going. You might also catch us at pop-up events and other community gatherings around Oshkosh.

SUMMARY:The Asian-Latino Borderlands w/ Dr. Lucero Estrella
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Lucero Estrella\, Assistant Professor of Ethnic Studies at Lawrence University\, joins WALC’s Immigration Learning Circle to educate us more on the Asian-Latino border. \n\n\n\nWhen we hear about the U.S.-Mexico border\, we rarely hear about the Asian migrants and Asian-Latino communities that have lived in those regions. Why have these histories been erased? Whose responsibility is it to share these stories? Dr. Estrella’s collaborations with the Asian-Latino communities across northern Mexico and Texas show that these communities have worked hard to preserve and tell the lesser-known histories of the Asian-Latino Borderlands. \n\n\n\nRegister here
