NH's Immigration Story
Our 9 month series, New Hampshire's Immigration Story explored just that... the vast history of who came to New Hampshire, when they came, why they came, the challenges they faced once they landed on Granite State soil and the contributions that they brought to our state. The Exchange, Word of Mouth, and our News Department looked at the issue of immigration from its first arrivals to the newest refugees calling New Hampshire home.We saw how immigration affects our economy, health care, education system, culture and our current system of law. We also looked at what's going on in New Hampshire today, as we uncovered the groups, societies and little known people who are making an impact all over the state.Funding for NH's Immigration Story is brought to you in part by: New Hampshire Humanities Council, Norwin S. and Elizabeth N. Bean Foundation, The Gertrude Couch Trust0000017a-15d9-d736-a57f-17ff89e10000

Who is American?

Socrates Exchange is an ongoing statewide conversation exploring issues, ethics, and ideas online and on the air. For each Socrates Exchange, NHPR picks a particular topic, poses a question online, and continues the conversation on The Exchange.  You become part of the Socratic dialogue by posting comments online, calling in during the show, or  participating during the live event.

Program starts promptly at 9:00 a.m. (sorry, no late admittance.)
