Critical Support: Charles x Shirin

Birthright Citizenship and Its Discontents


Listen Later

Brooklyn College Prof. Anna O. Law joins Critical Support to talk about her new book, "Migration and the Origins of American Citizenship: African Americans, Native Americans, and Immigrants." She discusses the history of American xenophobia, "open borders" and why the Trump administration is waging a war on birthright citizenship. And she tackles the question: Is there reason for hope?

Prof. Law's book is available at Oxford University Press: https://academic.oup.com/book/62224
