Politics is such a loaded phrase with polarization occurring across our country and apathy taking shape in multiple platforms. It is easy to feel let down or frustrated in the current climate, and I believe the first step towards improving our relationship with politics, the government system, and social movements is simple: the truth. Complicated issues such as illegal immigration never have simple solutions, but looking at the facts is a great place to start.Pamela Starr is an Associate Professor at USC of International Relations and Public Diplomacy with a specialization in US/Mexico relations. She also happens to be my aunt. Some of the topics we cover:1. Explain the mindset of Donald Trump voters2. Are illegal immigrants actually taking jobs from Americans?3. What news companies and are the best for non-bias information?4. Does your vote matter?5. How can an ordinary citizen make a difference in the community?
