Word Up welcomes award-winning professor Seth Michelson to discuss his new book Hope on the Border: Immigration, Incarceration, and the Power of Poetry, a humanizing story of immigration shown through the lens of undocumented, unaccompanied children and the poems they write.

In conversation with Michelson will be David C. Baluarte, an immigration attorney and CUNY law professor.  “Heartfelt . . . a surprisingly uplifting call to reform an unjust system.” -Publishers Weekly
