About this event
Executive produced by Rosario Dawson and produced by Peabody Award-winning writer and producer Marti Noxon, SPLIT AT THE ROOT follows the emotional journey of mothers separated from their children at the U.S. border and the grassroots initiative that, against all odds, reunites those families. When a Guatemalan mother seeking asylum was separated from her kids under Zero Tolerance Policy, a Facebook post by a mother in Queens coalesced into a movement as thousands of like-minded women across the US refused to stand by quietly. Immigrant Families Together was born as a rapid response group committed to doing what the government couldn't—or wouldn't do: reunite parents with their children separated by the Zero Tolerance Policy. SPLIT AT THE ROOT is directed by Emmy nominated director Linda Goldstein Knowlton. Directed by Linda Goldstein Knowlton.
