19 Rutgers Race & the Law Review 133 (2018) |

Domestic Work in the United States: Gender, Immigration, and Personhood |

Growing up, I spent hours playing in dimly-lit, stately homes, careful not to touch the antiques lining the halls. On weekends, I spent afternoons exploring the estate where my grandmother worked. A tall, wooden grandfather clock with a brass pendulum chimed at the end of the dark hallway, every hour on the hour. I listened to the chime echo in the...; Search Snippet: ...Perspectives Spring, 2018 Note Domestic Work in the United States: Gender, Immigration, and Personhood Samantha Malone [Fna1] Copyright © 2018 by Samantha... |
