This edition: I Am a Dreamer Special: Beyond DACA

Episode Details

Original tape date: November 3, 2022. First aired: November 9, 2022.

We are having a conversation about DACA, meaning deferred action for childhood arrivals, which was created in 2012, during President Obama’s term as a result of immigrant activism.

We want to have this important conversation in two parts. First, we will discuss the status and impact of DACA. Second, what CUNY is doing, or what else we can do, to support undocumented students.
