** SCREENING AND PANEL DISCUSSION
------------------------------------------------------------
MY DAY WILL COME

The U.S. Committee for Refugees and Immigrants is pleased to invite you to a screening of the documentary My Day Will Come, which gives an in-depth look into the challenges faced by people seeking asylum in the United States as a result of the Migrant Protection Protocols (MPP), also known as the “Remain in Mexico” policy.

The documentary follows Sarahy, a young woman from Honduras who, fearing for her life after being extorted and receiving death threats from organized crime in her country, is forced to flee her home and seek asylum in the U.S. The story covers everything, from the upheaval of having to leave Honduras to the dangers Sarahy faces in Mexico, her unshakable faith, as well as the feelings of desperation she struggles with while the MPP keep her waiting in Mexico’s northern border.

The screening will be followed by a panel discussion with the creators behind the documentary and a Q&A session.
