Rough Draft Questions

1. When protesting current immigration policies, how do songs like "Yo Soy Chicano" and "Besame Mucho" create an environment where more than just the affected community is fighting for justice? How does this tie into the idea of art being a unifying force in terms of creating a movement?

2. With it becoming evident how important immigrant farmworkers are especially in a time of crisis, how do you think the public view of these people will change? Do you think it will have a lasting effect on the fight for undocumented workers?

3. With the current pandemic making it even more clear the economic difference for lower-income demographics, how should policymakers address this gap that is causing these demographics to bear the worst of the coronavirus currently?
