To kick-off the 13th Annual Social Justice Symposium, a free screening of the documentary film Health Undocumented will be held Thursday, April 4 from 6-9 p.m. at the UA Health Science Innovation Building, 1670 E. Drachman St. A discussion will follow the movie.
Sparked by backlash to a neo-Nazi rally and a stream of strict anti-immigrant laws passing in the state of Arizona, a group of activists organize to build Phoenix Allies for Community Health, a unique free clinic serving undocumented immigrants. The film follows their journey, delves into the heart and history of the clinic, and chronicles the poignant stories of undocumented patients as well as their courage and resilience. HEALTH UNDOCUMENTED captures the inspirational birth of a local grassroots movement, full of beautiful human portraits including those of doctors, nurses, and activists who would stop at nothing to make difference.
