In the past year, immigration raids have escalated, racist and xenophobic rhetoric towards immigrants has proliferated, and immigration officers have used violent—and even lethal—force in the streets. Now, Haitian communities and many others with Temporary Protected Status (TPS) face uncertainty and fear as immigration policies leave them in limbo.

In this episode of Faith Talks, host Jennifer R. Farmer discusses immigration and threats to Black immigrant communities with Patrice Lawrence, the Executive Director of the UndocuBlack Network (UBN) and a dedicated advocate for currently and formerly undocumented Black immigrants.

• What role do you believe faith communities play in advocating for immigrants?
• And how should communities respond to policies or actions they view as unjust?
• What stood out to you most in this episode, and why do you think it resonated?

Patrice Lawrence (she/her) is the Executive Director of the UndocuBlack Network (UBN) and a dedicated advocate for currently and formerly undocumented Black immigrants. She brings lived experience and policy expertise to drive legislative wins, including co-leading LRIF—the only legalization measure passed in the last two decades. In 2024, UBN launched the Possibilities Campaign to help individuals adjust their immigration status through existing underutilized legal avenues with a penchant for autonomy. Migrating to the United States in 2007, she earned her BA from Hollins University, and her leadership has earned national recognition, delivered keynotes at institutions including Brown University, UCLA, and Rutgers, and contributed op-eds to prominent media outlets with lasting impact.
