Global Cleveland and Community Partners are hosting a reception, film screening of “Welcome to Shelbyville”, and a panel discussion on Tuesday, July 16, 2013 from 5:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. This event is free and open to the public, space is limited. RSVP at welcomingamerica.eventbrite.com . A documentary about immigrant integration in America's heartland, "Welcome to Shelbyville" takes an intimate look at a southern Tennessee town as its residents - whites and African Americans, recently arrived Somalis and Latinos who came a decade earlier - grapple with their beliefs, their histories, and their evolving ways of life. Set as Obama is elected and the economy is collapsing, it is a tremendously powerful film about race, immigration, and America.
