AAJA SF to present immigration panel at NHAJ regional conference

AAJA SF is hosting a panel on immigration at the National Association of Hispanic Journalists’s regional conference on March 22.

The panel, titled, “Uncovering the Hidden Stories of Immigration,” discusses immigration reform. The topic is one of the most pressing issues affecting Latino and Asian Americans, the two largest immigrant groups in this country. A panel of immigration reporters and attorneys will discuss the nuances of covering immigrant communities as well as some of the underreported stories of undocumented immigrants facing deportation.
