Film Screening: "Separated" with Q+A

Academy Award-winning filmmaker Errol Morris incisively probes the darkest chapter in recent American history: family separations. Merging narrative vignettes of one migrant family’s plight with hard-hitting interviews with government officials, Morris paints a jaw-dropping picture of the state-sponsored crisis of cruelty, as hundreds of families remain separated today. The 90-minute film screening will be followed by a panel discussion with acclaimed journalist Jacob Soboroff (also the film’s executive producer and writer), Teresa Puente (Assistant Professor, CSULB Journalism), and Marlene Nava Ramos (Assistant Professor, CSULB Chicano and Latino Studies), moderated by José Miguel Palacios (Assistant Professor, Cinematic Arts).
