Getting Beyond the Border: How Immigration Became a Political Crisis

Jonathan Blitzer, a staff writer at The New Yorker and author of Everyone Who Is Gone Is Here: The United States, Central America, and the Making of a Crisis, spoke at the University of Notre Dame on February 26, 2025, in an event hosted by the Klau Institute for Civil and Human Rights.

Blitzer’s lecture tied in with the Klau Institute’s Migration Initiative, which launched in 2024 through collaboration with other experts from across the Keough School of Global Affairs and the University as a whole.

The event was co-sponsored by the Institute for Latino Studies, the Institute for Social Concerns, the Kellogg Institute for International Studies, the Kroc Institute for International Peace Studies, and the Gallivan Program in Journalism, Ethics, and Democracy.
