Community Conversation: Politics + Examining the Border

Politics + Examining the Border
November 16 at 6:00 p.m.
Reserve Your Seat: mopa.org/pcp

MOPA is bringing together a unique group of expert voices to explore how communities are impacted by the border, how the border has changed, and the how the images in Point/Counterpoint: Contemporary Mexican Photography relate to wider issues on a local, national and international scale.

With San Diego’s relationship to the Mexico border, there is talk amongst our community no matter what side you are on.

Join us in a conversation that is deeply rooted in our regional culture.
