In the most impoverished neighborhood in New York City, the South Bronx, I help students that dropped out of high school achieve their goal and receive a high school diploma. The reason that I feel like I am in the right place for my job is because just like these "lost" students, I was going through a tough transition myself as I left my impoverished third-world country for a better opportunity. The toughest students are sometimes the best ones. I decided to publish this book to show that in each of one there is hope for a better future.

Three experts in immigration law offer a comprehensive examination of the rise and demise of the US asylum system. Beginning with the Refugee Act of 1980, they describe how Congress adopted a definition of refugee based on the UN Refugee Convention and prescribed equitable and transparent procedures for a uniform asylum process. The authors then chart the evolution of this process, showing how Republican and Democratic administrations and Congresses tweaked the asylum system but maintained it as a means of protecting victims of persecution - until the Trump administration.

Seine Grundthese: Die Menschheit wird sich in den nächsten Jahrzehnten neu auf der Erde verteilen (müssen).

Hands up! Who wants to be a refugee? I certainly did not! My mother had other ideas. For a fateful moment, the iron fist of oppression eased its grip. This was all she needed. We crossed two borders. The physical barrier was easy. The culture gap was harder to bridge. This story is about human foolishness, selfishness, and frailty. Yet, above all, the enduring courage of ordinary people caught up in extraordinary times.

Border and Rule explores a number of seemingly disparate global geographies with shared logics of border rule that displace, immobilize, criminalize, exploit, and expel migrants and refugees. With her keen ability to connect the dots, Harsha Walia demonstrates how borders divide the international working class and consolidate imperial, capitalist, and racist nationalist rule.

Why are Muslim men portrayed as inherently violent? Does the veil violate women's rights? Is Islam stopping Muslims from integrating? Across western societies, Muslims are more misunderstood than any other minority. But what does it mean to believe in Islam today, to have forged your beliefs and identity in the shadow of 9/11 and the War on Terror? Exploding stereotypes from both inside and outside the faith, The Muslim Problem shows that while we may think we know all about Islam we are often wrong about even the most basic facts.

Cuando Helena Maleno llegó a Marruecos en 2002 con su hijo, dos maletas y un proyecto laboral de tres meses no podía imaginar hasta qué punto aquel país y la lucha por los derechos de las poblaciones migrantes que lo atravesaban transformarían su vida para siempre.

Quella che abbiamo rimosso per ricordare solo gli "zii d'America" arricchiti e vincenti.

Out of all the issues we face in the United States, there are few as divisive as illegal immigration. This topic has intimidated politicians, created racial rifts among our communities, and has left us just as divided as we were during the Civil War. And that divide is growing. This collection of short but true stories illuminates the horrors faced along the border. As a former border patrol agent in Nogales, Arizona, and a missionary in Mexico, Marcus T. Livy has literally lived on both sides of the fence and on the topic of immigration.

For all of the energy that the far right has demonstrated - and for all of the support that they receive from institutional conservatives in the GOP and affiliated organizations - the United States is experiencing an upsurge in left-wing social movements unlike any other in the past half-century, with roots not in the Democratic Party but Occupy Wall Street and Black Lives Matter. Drawing on his original reporting as well as archival research, O’Connor investigates how the capitalist class and the radical right mobilize racism to defend their interests....

All They Will Call You is the harrowing account of "the worst airplane disaster in California's history", which claimed the lives of 32 passengers, including 28 Mexican citizens - farmworkers who were being deported by the US government. Outraged that media reports omitted only the names of the Mexican passengers, American folk icon Woody Guthrie penned a poem that went on to become one of the most important protest songs of the 20th century.
