A free film screening of “Fighting for Family” and a talk on local resistance to the deportation of Southeast Asian refugees with filmmaker, community activist, and educator Lan Nguyen.

FIGHTING FOR FAMILY is a story about the family separation caused by deportation. The film captures the love story of a young family who faces countless challenges, yet continues to be hopeful, resilient, and joyful. The film discusses U.S. imperialist war machine and the intergenerational harm that it inflicts, from the refugee flight to the school to prison to deportation pipeline, but also highlights the power of resilience and community resistance.
