A panel discussion held Oct. 24, 2007, at the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism.

With debate over immigration roiling America, what stories are being told — and what stories overlooked?  Do immigrant communities' voices get heard?  What special challenges confront journalists covering the daily lives of immigrants and refugees?

Panelists include:

Nina Bernstein, reporter, The New York Times

Jacob Massaquoi, Director, African Refuge

Arlene Morgan, Associate Dean of Prizes and Programs, Columbia Journalism School

Mirta Ojito, Assistant Professor, Columbia Journalism School, and former reporter at The New York Times, The Miami Herald, and El Nuevo Herald

Moderator: Bruce Shapiro, Executive Director, Dart Center for Journalism and Trauma
