The Pasadena Human Relations Committee is developing an extensive series on immigration in Pasadena. Committee Chair Felipe Infante, hopes to bring all communities of Pasadena together in dialogue. “Immigration legislation is not only a federal level issue. There are various communities impacted at the local level,” states Infante. “We’re working our hardest to develop a unique and creative series that will engage the residents of Pasadena through unique approach,” he adds.   The series will touch upon various aspects of immigration through film, forums, discussions and other creative events. Immigration is often thought of to be an exclusively Latino issue, this forum will hopefully be an educational experience and provide social awareness.   The Immigration Series will kick off in October beginning with activities that help humanize immigration, an often ignored yet essential component in how this issue is perceived.   If you have ideas, further questions, want more information, or to offer your support, please contact Commissioner Felipe O.
