The Deportation War
Nicholas G. Bokas, Immigration Lawyer
The Trump administration has instituted immigration policies that have placed hundreds of thousands of persons who previously had protected, legal status into a “deportation” status. People from various countries who were legally given refuge into the United States no longer have protected, legal status. International students who came to the United States on student visas are subject to deportation if their words or actions are considered a threat to national security. Will these and other Trump administration policies prevail in the courts? If so, what will happen to these people? Who among them will be deported? How might this be done? We will explore these and other critical questions concerning this ongoing human drama in our country.

For over 50 years, the Sunday Forum lecture series has showcased provocative, sometimes controversial, speakers discussing topical issues of the day: politics, the environment, health issues, the arts, education, and more. The Sunday Forum is held at 10:00 a.m. September through May. Speakers give a 45-minute presentation, followed by questions and brief comments from the audience. The content of Forum lectures does not necessarily express the viewpoint of First Unitarian Society of Milwaukee, but are meant to offer thoughtful topics which our members often pursue further on their own.
