Superintendent Builds Bridges to New Immigrant Communities

With his “teach them all” ethos, Superintendent Jim Rollins is on the leading edge of helping immigrant students and their families find a foothold in Arkansas’ Springdale Public Schools and the broader community. Springdale’s student body, which swelled from about 5,000 mostly-white students when Rollins arrived in 1980 to 21,500 students in the 2016-17 school year, now educates thousands of Hispanic immigrants, many of them recent arrivals to the United States. Springdale has also become home to one of the largest populations of Marshallese people outside the Marshall Islands, a Micronesian country that was the site of U.S. nuclear tests during the Cold War. “There were years when we would have hundreds of immigrant children and their families come into the district,” Rollins says. “You...

A new city report says that poverty is on the rise in Queens, particularly in immigrant communities. A study by the city Center for Economic Opportunity spotlighted working families and immigrant communities that have borne the brunt of higher rents and a tight jobs market. An additional 7 percent of the city's Asian population — half of whom live in Queens — fell into poverty, bringing the group's poverty rate to 29 percent. It was the largest increase for any single ethnic group, according to the report. At ...

Fear - defined as an unpleasant emotion caused by the belief that someone or something is dangerous, likely to cause pain, or a threat. It is a sentiment Alfredo is trying desperately to stave off. But he and his wife Viviana are undocumented - which doesn’t exactly help ease tensions in the midst of unsubstantiated reports of an ICE immigration raid, or fake ICE agents shaking down unsuspecting undocumented immigrants for money. ICE officials confirm forty-one undocumented immigrants from New York were part of recent nationwide sweep...and that the vast majority - thirty-eight of those arrested - had criminal convictions. But we took a look at the breakdown, and at least ten of those arrested immigrants had convictions, not for drug offenses or sexual assaults, but driving under the influence - and ICE did not respond to our inquiries for details on those offenses, including how long ago they were committed. Now it is an absolute fact the Obama administration logged a record two and half million deportations, and was criticized and accused repeatedly over the years for inappropriately rounding up people who with minor offences on their record, or with no criminal record at all…right alongside hardened criminals. But Alfredo and Viviana - who were obviously living here in Queens during Mr. Obama’s two terms - say based on what they’ve been hearing from the White House these days, any documented immigrant - criminal or no criminal…is now at risk of a one way ticket out of the US.

Ethnic Banks and Community Development in New York City's Immigrant Neighborhoods

Speaker: Tarry Hum Dr. Tarry Hum's research examines the increasing presence of ethnic banks in New York City's immigrant neighborhoods. In particular, Dr. Hum focus on the growing number of Chinese-owned ethnic banks in working-class Sunset Park, Brooklyn, their lending practices and community investment activities. Based on an analysis of 1998-2005 HMDA data, interviews with bank CEOs and other community institutions, and a review of recent Community Reinvestment Act evaluations, she finds that despite their concentrated presence, most ethnic banks made few home mortgage loans to Asian homebuyers. Rather ethnic banks figure prominently as part of an immigrant based urban growth coalition that is transforming neighborhoods like Sunset Park through commercial real estate development. ...

She’s an entrepreneur, advocating for the empowerment through our communities through financial literacy, welcome Natalie to this week’s Immigration MIC! Born in El Salvador and raised in Inglewood, Natalie takes me through the story of how her family fled El Salvador during the civil war, and grew up in a neighborhood that surrounded by family in California .

Integrating Immigrant Communities into Civic and Political Life A Panel Discussion on the Lawrence Experience Welcome Remarks by Daniel Rivera, Mayor of Lawrence Featuring: Jessica Andors, Executive Director, Lawrence Community Works Sr. Eileen Burns, SNDdeN, Executive Director, Notre Dame Education Center--Lawrence Zoila Gomez, Immigration Attorney Eliana Martinez, Teacher, Lawrence International High School Archon Fung, Ford Foundation Professor of Democracy and Citizenship, Harvard Kennedy School Asma Khalid, Reporter, WBUR (Moderator) Immigration policy and paths to citizenship are hotly contested topics on the national stage, yet the impact of immigration is most often experienced on the local level. Lawrence and communities like it across the country are on the frontlines dealing with important questions and tensions that immigration can present. On a practical level, what steps can a community take to address issues such as integration, identity, and alienation—and their impact on economic security, public safety, and civic health? The panel discussion highlighted how Lawrence has strived to welcome generations of immigrants into the economic, civic and political life of its community. The event was an opportunity to reflect on what Lawrence has learned from the city's efforts to integrate new arrivals: what has worked, what did not work, and what else might the city do.

This webcast is currently available for viewing only and is NO LONGER APPLICABLE FOR AICP CM credits. Sponsored By: Pennsylvania Chapter Description: The surge in immigration over the past two decades has engendered an unprecedented level of racial ethnic and cultural diversity in the United States. This session will present an overview of some key concepts, trends and issues to consider when planning in immigrant and multi-ethnic contexts in the U.S. and in Philadelphia in particular. A range of tools (along with their advantages and drawbacks will be presented to explore a range of possible planning approaches and tactics for communities with large immigrant populations and illustrate how these approaches can enrich planning practice more generally. ETHICS BLURB: This session discusses why and how to plan inclusively – how to engage underserved populations and why it creates better outcomes for communities. The APA advocates for inclusive planning, and requires certified planners to uphold a Code of Ethics. This session will address the mandate from the AICP Code of Ethics that a planner’s primary obligation is to serve the public interest. This obligation includes seeking social justice, dealing fairly with all participants in the planning process, and giving people the opportunity to have a meaningful impact on the development of plans and programs that may affect them. Involving the full spectrum of a community, including populations that are typically underserved, in planning and implementation projects not only creates buy-in of projects, but also develops projects that better serve the communities. The panelists will discuss why and how to engage immigrant and cultural diverse populations in planning and implementation.

She’s an entrepreneur, advocating for the empowerment through our communities through financial literacy, welcome Natalie to this week’s Immigration MIC! Born in El Salvador and raised in Inglewood, Natalie takes me through the story of how her family fled El Salvador during the civil war, and grew up in a neighborhood that surrounded by family in California . This all changed during the LA Riots, which provided her with a first person, eye opening perspective on police brutality and race relations, and how her neighborhood permanently changed as a result. “That happens all the time, it’s just the first time they caught it on video.” The riots changed Natalie’s upbringing as well - she was placed in private school, and she describes to me the shift from public school to an environment where she was one of the only Latinas. “I’ve always been fascinated with the behavior of people and money, that’s why I was a business major.” From cheerleading, to student council, dance, college, running a non-profit (prom dresses for young women), a successful career in real estate development, Natalie finds it exciting to step out of her comfort zone, and take on ambitious roles. Here's where we start getting deep - while she was in graduate school, and the pressure of everything she had taken on, Natalie suffered a mental breakdown, and went into a deep depression. She describes the moments in the hospital, dropping out of her course, the way she began to recover, and we share our collective experiences around panic attacks. As a result, Natalie is a very outspoken advocate for mental health wellness. Natalie founded Financially Fit Latina - an initiative focused on financial literacy, inspired by wanting to provide helpful tips to other people to manage their money habits, and student loans - even writing a short book that captures all these tips in one place. In this political moment, Natalie believes in the power of sharing stories and representation of our communities in institutions, and is using her platform to help inspire others to find empowerment through her speaking engagements and presentations. She’s very passionate about the undocumented community and the need to connect students to scholarships that may be available to help them overcome: “these students will come back and do these amazing things - they’re willing to work twice as hard to be seen as equal” “This is our future, they are our communities - no matter what background we’re from” Thank you Natalie for pitching yourself to the podcast - you’re a perfect representation of the people we need in our corners as we fight for social justice with all of your wisdom, ambition, and love for our communities!
