Today on Lake Effect, we explore Wisconsin’s immigrant history, and our perception of Latino communities. Then, we hear a conversation with young Latina women who are working towards an inclusive future and fighting for the rights of undocumented people. Plus, we speak with the director of the film “unseen” on the life of a blind, undocumented immigrant.
