    Victoria Bruce & Rebecca Eichler, moderated by Careen Shannon


    Immigration lawyer Careen Shannon moderates a conversation with immigration lawyer Rebecca Eichler and award-winning filmmaker Victoria Bruce, both of whom recently visited Mexico’s northern and southern borders and report on their experience and their impressions of US immigration policy as well as Mexican policy

    Rebecca N. Eichler has over 20 years of experience as an immigration attorney working with clients from around the world seeking protection under U.S. and international law. She currently lives and works in Mexico as a human rights advocate. She is a Board member of the Latin American Relief Fund and on the Legal Committee of Caminamos Juntos. Through her work with deportees from the U.S. and migrants at the U.S. border, she has gained a unique perspective on the systemic human rights abuses perpetrated by the Trump administration and its violations of U.S. immigration law and international asylum obligations. Now she updates the picture in the Biden Administration and reports from her recent visit to Mexico’s southern border.
