Immigration policy debates are increasingly focused on preventing the flight of Latin Americans and Caribbeans who are leaving their home countries in search of economic and/or physical security in the US. At the same, many sectors of the US economy--including
in Kansas and Missouri--draw migrants from these same countries, who often work and live under punishing and exploitative conditions. To what extent can the US reconcile the goals of incentivizing potential migrants to remain in their home countries while
the country's labor markets simultaneously induce their exodus? This moderated conversation will feature Suzanne Gladney, Director of the Migrant Farmworkers Assistance Fund (Kansas City, Missouri) and Brent Metz, KU Professor of Anthropology, who will discuss
the forces driving Central Americans from their home communities and the challenge of creating more humane working and living conditions once migrant laborers arrive in the region.</p>
