"Resettled" Documentary Screening and Panel Discussion

Join the RACI network for a screening of the documentary “Resettled” followed by a panel discussion. Culinary samples from multiple refugee and immigrant owned restaurants and beverages will also be provided.

“Resettled” follows the community of Clarkston, Georgia, known as the “most diverse square mile in the United States”. After embracing the refugee resettlement program in the 1990’s, Clarkston is now a vibrant and flourishing community with over half of the population being foreign born. The documentary follows a few former refugees and the programs that helped them to acclimate to life in the US.

Following the documentary screening we will have panel discussion with community leaders in the central Iowa area who work within the refugee resettlement programs or who themselves have lived experience.

Attendees will also be able to sample food from many different refugee and immigrant owned restaurants in the central Iowa area.
