"Beyond Borders: Tales of Monarcas, Rivers and Two Nations" Film Screening and Panel Discussion
Join us for a special screening of Beyond Borders: Tales of Monarcas, Rivers and Two Nations, a documentary film highlighting four Latino leaders throughout the country, whose livelihoods depend on natural resources, like clean air and water. Those natural resources—especially those stemming from the Mississippi River and greater watershed—are in danger from climate change, pollution, overuse, and nature loss. Learn more about the stake Latinos (and monarchs, to whom they are deeply connected) have in the health of the Mississippi River watershed, the threats it faces, and the solutions communities can take part in. A moderated panel discussion follows.

- 5:00 p.m.: Reception

Free of charge and open to the public, this special event is presented in partnership with the Hispanic Access Foundation.
