Voices from Silence: Policies and Narratives Post-9/11

This panel discussion will address how the events of 9/11, and subsequent legislation such as the USA Patriot Act, have affected the lives of refugee, immigrant and religious minorities. Monday, April 23, 2007 (7:00-9:00 p.m.), Location: Cowles Auditorium, Humphrey Institute, 301--19th Ave. S., Minneapolis MN. Free and open to the public.

This event follows the recent release of the Minnesota Advocates report “Voices from Silence: Personal Accounts of the Long-Term Impact of 9/11.” The panel discussion is the first in a series of community dialogues on the long-term impact of 9/11, culminating in a day-long conference this fall which will explore in depth the issues raised in the Minnesota Advocates’ report.
