Lutheran Immigration & Refugee Service Virtual Book Series

Author Jessica Goudeau will discuss her new book, “After the Last Border: Two Families and the Story of Refuge in America” on Zoom. After the Last Border is an intimate look at the lives of two women as they struggle for the twenty-first century American dream, having been resettled as refugees in Austin, Texas. After the Last Border situates a dramatic, character-driven story within a larger examination of not just how America’s changing attitudes toward refugees have influenced policies and laws, but also the profound effect on human lives. The session will be moderated by Krish O'Mara Vignarajah, president and CEO of Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Service.
