Description
Gregg Aamot has written about immigrants and refugees for The Associated Press and Minnesota newspapers for 15 years. He will discuss the core theme of his book, The New Minnesotans. This theme includes the efforts of these newcomers -- Hmong, Somalis, Hispanics and others -- to adapt to a different culture. He will also reflect on Minnesota's immigrant past, comparing and contrasting that long-ago era with today's wave of newcomers.
