Crossing Borders: The Reconciliation of a Nation of Immigrants | Ali Noorani | TEDxBoston
With record numbers of people displaced across the world, Ali Noorani, President and CEO of the National Immigration Forum, takes us from an immigration court in El Paso, Texas, to rural Storm Lake, Iowa, to trace the arc of the migration debate and offer new perspectives on a more compassionate path forward.
Ali Noorani is president & chief executive officer of the National Immigration Forum, a nonpartisan advocacy organization working with faith, law enforcement and business leaders to promote the value of immigrants and immigration. Through innovative constituency, communications and advocacy strategies, Ali is one of the nation’s most creative coalition builders.
