Too often in the media, immigrants and migrants are dehumanized by the constant scrutiny of their legal rights in America. With LIVING, we want to steer the conversation away from policy and look solely at the personal impacts of immigration. How does immigration effect not just those who leave, but also those who stay in their home country? What do those relationships look like after years of distance?
