Check out Insight Now’s noon-hour immigration conversation

Colleague Michael Caputo just wrapped a lively noon-hour online conversation on immigration in Minnesota. Check it out at the Insight Now site.

The conversation ran from food and dance to illegal immigration to speaking English to how to make people feel welcome. But my favorite comment came from a participant thanking Michael at the end -- "I usually find hour-long webinars boring."

The conversation was a follow-up to the conversation Wilder Research held Wednesday to talk about its MNCompass database on immigration and to hold a discussion that I moderated. You can now find that hour-long show here.

One of the items that came up both on Wednesday and again today was a set of tools put out by the Rochester Diversity Council. You can find it here.
