Countering Anti-immigration Extremism: the Southern Poverty Law Center's Strategies |
12 New York City Law Review 405 (Summer 2009) |
At the end of the twentieth century and the beginning of the twenty-first, it became increasingly clear that the United States was seeing the rise of a xenophobic and ostensibly racist anti-immigration movement. This nativist wave was, unsurprisingly, accompanied by a rise since 2000 of more than fifty percent in the number of hate groups listed by... |

COUNTERING THE CRIMINAL NATURE OF IMMIGRATION ENFORCEMENT: A PROPOSAL TO EXPAND CONSTITUTIONAL SAFEGUARDS |
21 Seattle Journal for Social Justice 51 (Fall, 2022) |
The Supreme Court of the United States has maintained that immigration deportation proceedings are purely civil actions and are not criminal proceedings intended to punish unlawful entry or presence of noncitizens. Given this classification, noncitizens facing deportation are not afforded many of the same constitutional safeguards as defendants... |

Court-packing Time? Supreme Court Legitimacy and Positivity Theory |
68 Buffalo Law Review 1519 (December, 2020) |
Many progressives have decided they need to change the Supreme Court to break the conservative justices' lock on judicial power. Yet those same progressives disagree about the best way to change the Court. This Essay begins by comparing straight-forward court-packing--adding justices to shift the partisan balance on the Court--to other possible... |

In recent years, immigration has risen to the top of America's collective consciousness.

Courts Vs. The Political Branches: Immigration "Reform" and the Battle for the Future of Immigration Law |
5 Georgetown Journal of Law and Public Policy 509 (Summer, 2007) |
When the topic of immigration reform is discussed, the focus is usually on the efforts of the political branches, particularly Congress. The role of the judiciary is typically ignored or mischaracterized. In this Article, Professor Slocum discusses the role of the judiciary with regard to immigration reform and argues that the judiciary's efforts... |

A daring group of Cubans commandeers a state-owned helicopter and makes a dramatic and dangerous flight to freedom. They leave behind a repressive government and a country in economic chaos.

Two pieces of legislation form the cornerstones of modern immigration reform. The first, the Immigration Reform and Control Act (IRCA), was enacted by Congress and signed into law by President Ronald Reagan in 1986. IRCA was proclaimed as a major step towards reform and was touted as the solution to the problem of illegal migration. The second,... |

The story of the United States has been one of welcoming foreigners. It has also been a story of excluding foreigners. Some prospective immigrants have been deemed worthy of admission into the country, while others have been turned back. Some entered without asking the government's permission and were deported after coming to the federal... |

Abstract: The Supreme Court's decision in Padilla v. Kentucky involves criminal defense attorneys in immigration law as never before.

134 Harvard Law Review 1268 (January, 2021) |

In May 2017, the government of Brazil enacted a new immigration law, replacing a statute introduced in 1980 during the country's military dictatorship with progressive legislation that advances human rights principles and adopts innovative approaches to migration management.

Criminalizing Work and Non-work: the Disciplining of Immigrant and African American Workers |
14 University of Massachusetts Law Review 290 (Spring, 2019) |
The realities of low-wage work in the United States challenge our basic notions of freedom and equality. Many low-wage workers share the condition of being stuck in jobs toiling excessive hours against their will for less than poverty wages in autocratic workplaces. Yet the racial politics of immigration and labor are often used to stir hostility... |

CRIMMIGRATING NARRATIVES: EXAMINING THIRD-PARTY OBSERVATIONS OF US DETAINED IMMIGRATION COURT |
48 Law and Social Inquiry 407 (May, 2023) |
Examining what we call crimmigrating narratives, we show that US immigration court criminalizes non-citizens, cements forms of social control, and dispenses punishment in a non-punitive legal setting. Building on theories of crimmigration and a sociology of narrative, we code, categorize, and describe third-party observations of detained... |

In 1926, local law enforcement and federal immigration authorities in Chicago pursued a deportation drive ostensibly directed at gang members. However, the operation largely took the form of indiscriminate raids on immigrant neighborhoods of the city.
