About the Event:
Join our fascinating panel discussion led by Molly Doane, Associate Professor of Anthropology at UIC, and Haley LeRand, Director of the Global Garden Refugee Training Farm, as they explore place-making in diaspora through the seeds that refugees and immigrants carry with them as they migrate, the gardens they create, and the social infrastructures and movements they grow.
- This program is presented in partnership with the University of Illinois Chicago Institute for the Humanities.
