Bans, Walls, Raids, Sanctuary Zusammenfassung

Bans, Walls, Raids, Sanctuary: Understanding U.S. Immigration for the Twenty-First Century A. Naomi Paik

Days after taking the White House, Donald Trump signed three executive orders-these authorized the Muslim Ban, the border wall, and ICE raids. These orders would define his administration's approach toward noncitizens. An essential primer on how we got here, Bans, Walls, Raids, Sanctuary shows that such barriers to immigration are embedded in the very foundation of the United States. A. Naomi Paik reveals that the forty-fifth president's xenophobic, racist, ableist, patriarchal ascendancy is no aberration, but the consequence of two centuries of U.S. political, economic, and social culture. She deftly demonstrates that attacks against migrants are tightly bound to assaults against women, people of color, workers, ill and disabled people, and queer and gender nonconforming people. Against this history of barriers and assaults, Bans, Walls, Raids, Sanctuary mounts a rallying cry for a broad-based, abolitionist sanctuary movement for all.

Bans, Walls, Raids, Sanctuary Bewertungen

This book provides a diagnosis and suggests a way forward toward a better future. . . . Abolitionist sanctuary combines the radical welcome of sanctuary with the transformative vision of abolition. It sees migration as linked to many other struggles for justice. It is only through collaboration and reimagination, Paik argues, that we will be able to achieve lasting change. * Public Books *

In Bans, Walls, Raids, Sanctuary, Paik has given us an essential guide to our current moment that is both forward looking and well informed by the past. Students, organizers, and activists alike will find this clear and accessible book useful and inspiring.

* H-Net *
This is a slim and accessible text that could serve as an introduction to some of the most pressing legal, political, and ethical issues of our day. * Religious Studies Review *
