Illegal: How America's Lawless Immigration
Regime Threatens Us All
Monday, March 16, 2020
1:40PM—3:00PM
524 West 59th Street
Room: L2.85NB
In Illegal, Elizabeth F. Cohen reveals that our current immigration crisis has roots in early twentieth century white nationalist politics, which began to reemerge in the 1980s. Since then, ICE and CBP have acquired bigger budgets and more power than any other law enforcement agency. Now, Trump has unleashed them. If we want to reverse the rising tide of abuse, Cohen argues that we must act quickly to rein in the powers of the current immigration regime and revive saner approaches based on existing law. Elizabeth Cohen is a professor of political science at the Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs at Syracuse University.
