    Donald Trump has promised to deport millions of immigrants. This isn’t just a border story – it could have a significant impact throughout the South, including where you live. It’s time to prepare to cover this critical story.

    Don’t know anything about immigration? Never covered deportations? We’ll help you get started!

    Award-winning Memphis-based reporter Daniel Connolly has reported on immigration issues for news outlets, including The Associated Press, The (Memphis) Commercial Appeal and national legal news service Law360. He wrote a book on Mexican immigration to the South, “The Book of Isaias,” published in 2016.

    In this webinar, Daniel will offer local reporters practical tips on how to cover immigration, immigration enforcement, detentions and deportations far away from the U.S.-Mexico border.

    This free webinar is geared toward journalists in Arkansas, Tennessee, Louisiana and Mississippi but is open to journalists across the U.S.
