To celebrate National Hispanic Heritage Month, we’ll watch a TedTalk by Elizabeth Camarillo Gutierrez on What’s missing from the American immigrant narrative.

Recounting her story of finding opportunity and stability in the US, Elizabeth Camarillo Gutierrez examines the flaws in narratives that simplify and idealize the immigrant experience -- and shares hard-earned wisdom on the best way to help those around us. "Our world is one that flourishes when different voices come together," she says.

For those newer to GumGum, these sessions are an opportunity for us to slow down, listen to an inspiring podcast or TedTalk and then open up to a round table discussion on what we've just watched.
