In the wake of post-9/11 xenophobia, Obama's record-level deportations, Trump's immigration policies, and the 2020 uprisings for racial justice, the US remains entrenched in a circular discourse regarding migrant justice.

Our only hope for creating a liberated society for all, she insists, is abolition.

Deploying an abundance of primary source evidence and well-reasoned arguments, historian and distinguished professor emeritus David T.

Conflict-related sexual violence has transitioned rapidly from a neglected human rights issue to an unambiguous security concern on the agendas of powerful states and the United Nations Security Council.
