The Pendatang Cometh #3: Pushback

For every person dreaming of leaving their country for better promises and prospects, there are people and systems determined to keep them out, and no system is more scrutinised than that of the United States. In this episode, we look at the discrimination faced by immigrants, the friction that happens between borders, and find out what the original Americans, its Native population, think about migration and whether they’ve been treated fairly in the mix. This episode was originally broadcasted on 20th October 2015.
