The Washington DREAM Act Coalition is hosting a screening of The DREAM is NOW on Friday, April 19th at the Ethnic Clutural Center, University of Washington. We are joining forces with groups throughout the United States for a National Day of Action to raise awareness.
The film follows the lives of 4 undocumented students in America as they deal with our broken immigration system. DREAMers have put a face on this issue and this thought-provoking film was created to help all understand the need for Congress to act to fix the broken immigration system and provide a path to citizenship for over 11 million undocumented Americans who need to be a part of our economic and cultural future.
Davis Guggenheim, Director, is the Oscar winning director of "An Inconvenient Truth" and "Waiting for Superman." “The Dream is Now” tells the stories of undocumented youth and their families who are desperate to earn their citizenship in the only country they've ever called home. Laurene Powell Jobs, an incredibly strong advocate for DREAMers and Comprehensive Immigration Reform, has provided financial backing for this remarkable project. She has been a tireless advocate for undocumented students through College Track, a nonprofit group she co-founded to help under-served high school students access college.
Our event will be followed by a panel discussion of DREAMers. We invite you to attend this special screening.
