90.7 WMFE launched an in-depth multi-platform series Central Florida Seen & Heard this month, with a focus on the Immigration Divide in Central Florida. The seven-part series shed light on the Immigration Divide in Central Florida, lending perspective on how immigration has shaped the history, culture, and economies of the place we call home, and how policies affect access to healthcare, education, and the American Dream.
On Thursday, September 28, from 6-8p at the Hope CommUnity Center in Apopka, 90.7 WMFE in partnership with HOPE, will bring the series from the airwaves into the community, with a deep discussion on this in-depth series with the reporters who brought you the stories and Central Floridians whose stories they told.
Guests will also have an opportunity to hear audio not previously published in the series and view images captured by Macbeth Studios.
* traducción completa al español estará disponible.
Childcare will be provided.
Light refreshments will be available.
Eventbrite registration is highly recommended but not required.
