Imagining Freedom Teach-In: “Undocumented Students in the Age of Trump: What Every Campus Needs to Know”
Featuring María Blanco <https://law.ucdavis.edu/faculty/blanco/>, Executive Director of the Undocumented Student Legal Services Center <http://undoc.universityofcalifornia.edu./>, UC Davis
Tuesday, January 31, 9-10:30 AM. Light breakfast served.
EMU 107 Miller Room
Description: The new administration promises dramatic changes to the legal and political status and conditions facing undocumented students. What do faculty, staff and students need to know to navigate this new environment? What steps can campuses take to proactively protect their students? What role might Dreamers play in challenging this new regime?
To help the UO community navigate these questions, this session features, María Blanco <https://law.ucdavis.edu/faculty/blanco/>, Executive Director of theUndocumented Student Legal Services Center <http://undoc.universityofcalifornia.edu./>, which operates out of UC Davis School of Law to provide immigration-related legal services for undocumented students at the six University of California campuses without law schools. Launched in November 2014, the Center is a pilot project of the University of California Office of the President and works in collaboration with the UC Davis School of Law Immigration Law Clinic.
A graduate of UC Berkeley, Blanco has more than 20 years’ experience as a litigator and advocate for immigrant rights, women’s rights, and social justice. She most recently served as Vice President of Civic Engagement at the California Community Foundation and led its immigrant integration initiatives. Blanco has also served as Executive Director of the Chief Justice Earl Warren Institute at UC Berkeley School of Law, as Executive Director of the Lawyers' Committee for Civil Rights of the San Francisco Bay Area, as an Equal Rights Advocates attorney, as associate director and associate professor at Golden Gate University School of Law, and as National Senior Counsel for the Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund.
