Against the Deportation Terror

Despite being characterized as a “nation of immigrants,” the United States has seen a long history of immigrant rights struggles.

She traces the story of the American Committee for the Protection of the Foreign Born (ACPFB) from its origins in the 1930s through repression during the early Cold War, to engagement with “new” Latinx and Caribbean immigrants in the 1970s and early 1980s.
