Immigration Nation

We are eighth graders from LREI School (Little Red School House & Elisabeth Irwin High School) in Greenwich Village, NYC. Our grade is embarking on a social justice project in which we focus on civil/human rights issues of our interest. Our group chose immigration as our topic. We are focusing on the rights of the undocumented youth immigrants in the United States. We are also focusing on the DREAM Act, a U.S. Federal law that has not been passed yet, that would guarantee permanent residency for undocumented high school graduates. It stands for “Development, Relief, and Education for Alien Minors.”
