Session 2: “The Unafraid” Documentary Viewing and Facilitated Discussion

Larry Walker Room, Dean Rusk Hall

The Unafraid is a feature length documentary that follows the personal lives of three DACA students in Georgia, a state that has banned them from attending their top state universities and disqualifies them from receiving in-state tuition at any other public college. Shot in an observational style over a period of four years, this films takes an intimate look at the lives of the students as they navigate activism, pursuing their right to education, and fighting for the rights of their families and communities. The unafraid shows us what it means to grow up both American and undocumented in the United States. Dr. Nackerud, faculty member at UGA's School of Social Work facilitates discussion following the viewing, drawing on his experience and interests in public policy in the area of U.S. immigration and refugees.
