Caitlin Dickerson👍 Recommends
…recommending books to help understand immigration policy history
“I'm going to recommend Impossible Subjects by May Nye. This is kind of a holy grail book for immigration nerds, but it's eminently readable and it tells the story of Americans' relationship to immigrants, really helps people understand how we reached this moment and how immigration enforcement has really always been subjective.”
