Amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, migrants and asylum seekers are facing an increasingly dire situation along the southern U.S. border. Pulitzer Center-supported journalists Maria Hinojosa and Anna-Catherine Brigida have covered how the Trump administration’s efforts to push refugees back from the border, deny undocumented immigrants stimulus benefits, and sustain deportation flights have exacerbated the challenges already facing migrants. Adding to the conversation is Maria Zamudio, another Pulitzer Center-supported journalist who focused her reporting project on how the military failed veterans who were deported even before the pandemic.

Join their conversation on Thursday, July 30, 2020, at 2 pm eastern/ 1 pm central, as part of the Talks @ Pulitzer Focus on Justice online series.
