DJPC’s 2010 Salon Discussion Series invites you to the July Film Series event, Crossing Arizona. Join us Thursday July 15th at 7:00PM as we view this documentary that focuses on the Arizona border and the desert climate that has caused a rise in migrant deaths as they attempt to cross into the United States. The speaker will be Jennifer Piper who works with AFSC.
Frustrated ranchers go out day after day to repair cut fences and pick up the trash that endangers their livestock and livelihoods. Humanitarian groups place water stations in the desert in an attempt to save lives. And now there are the Minutemen, an armed citizen patrol group taking border security into their own hands. “Crossing Arizona” reveals the surprising political stances people take when immigration and border policy fails everyone.
