Race, Immigration, and Mass Removals
The first panel in the CLS Fall Speaker Series explores the history of diverse immigrant communities in the United States, including Asian and Latinx/e experiences. The panelists provide a historical overview of immigration and exclusion across racial and ethnic lines. Combined, these presentations illuminate the drastic effects of immigration policies on historically marginalized communities. Despite their marginalization, as the panelists have shown, immigrant communities have created a sense of home in the United States and found creative ways to function as transnational families across national borders. Panelists include Marla Ramírez, Kevin R. Johnson, and Elliott Young. Want to join the event remotely? Register online, and we’ll send you a link.
