Next Tuesday: Abuse, Accountability, and Organizational Culture at U.S. Border Law Enforcement Agencies
I don’t host events very often, and I’ve wanted to do this one for a while.
![](https://i0.wp.com/adamisacson.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/WOLA_Webinar_OCT_Final.png?fit=30%2C30&ssl=1)
There’s a few colleagues in Washington and at the U.S.-Mexico border whose work I really admire: people who take testimonies from migrants about abuse they say they suffered at the hands of U.S. border law enforcement agencies (CBP and Border Patrol), and people who doggedly follow the DHS complaints process and otherwise seek reforms to hold abusers accountable. It’s hard work.
I’m delighted that four of these colleagues accepted my invitation to talk about their work, what they’re finding, what happens when you try to achieve justice or redress after an abuse occurs, and how to bring about institutional and cultural change.
We’ll be talking at 1:00pm Eastern next Tuesday in this virtual event. I’ll share the video on YouTube (and embedded here) afterward. Please join, and share—here’s the WOLA event announcement.
