Reading Refuge Book Club: The Truth About Immigration
October 24, 2024, 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm CDT
We are thrilled to welcome Zeke Hernandez to talk about his book, The Truth About Immigration: Why Successful Societies Welcome Newcomers.
The book combines moving personal stories with rigorous evidence to offer an accessible, apolitical, and fact-based look at how newcomers affect our local communities and our nation. 
Hernandez turns conventional thinking on its head by covering issues such as migration’s effect on the economy and migration as a social issue.
Most books making a case for immigration tell you that immigration is good for immigrants. The Truth About Immigration is all about how newcomers benefit you, your community, and your country. A nation without immigration quickly becomes a stagnant pond instead of a thriving lake. With Hernandez’s insight we can all see how America needs to welcome immigrants to remain an ever evolving country dedicated to its founding ideals of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
