Immigration is one of today’s most talked about topics. Rarely, though, do we hear from immigrants themselves. Suketu Mehta, a Pulitzer Prize finalist for Maximum City, and an immigrant himself, fills this gap with his latest work, This Land is Our Land: An Immigrant’s Manifesto. With empathy and precision, Mehta gathers the narratives of immigrants, and interweaves them with moments from his own family’s immigrant story, in a powerful reminder of the universality of human experience. At CHF, Mehta will discuss the reasons people migrate, the challenges they face, and the invaluable contributions they make to their new homes.
