Lauren Southern's UC Irvine speech debunks myths about the migrant crisis

The 22-year-old, Canadian, right-wing YouTuber Lauren Southern gave a speech Thursday night at University of California, Irvine titled “The Truth About the Migrant Crisis.” She explained how she became involved in the immigration debate and why she is so passionate about it.

When Southern first entered college, she was most interested in economics and social issues — not immigration. She recounted one of her trips overseas with Generation Identity, which opened her eyes to the human trafficking element that’s a part of the crisis.
