SUMMARY:VIRTUAL: A. Naomi Paik / Bans\, Walls\, Raids\, Sanctuary: Understanding U.S. Immigration for the Twenty-First Century
DESCRIPTION:Booksmith and UC Press present a 6-part series of virtual events focused on urgent societal issues\, broadcasting every Monday at 11am PST. This first event in the series features A. Naomi Paik discussing her book Bans\, Walls\, Raids\, Sanctuary: Understanding U.S. Immigration for the Twenty-First Century. \nThis is a free event\, but RSVP is required. RSVP here. \n\n\nDays after taking the White House\, Donald Trump signed three executive orders—these authorized the Muslim Ban\, the border wall\, and ICE raids. These orders would define his administration’s approach toward noncitizens. An essential primer on how we got here\, Bans\, Walls\, Raids\, Sanctuary shows that such barriers to immigration are embedded in the very foundation of the United States. A. Naomi Paik reveals that the forty-fifth president’s xenophobic\, racist\, ableist\, patriarchal ascendancy is no aberration\, but the consequence of two centuries of U.S. political\, economic\, and social culture. She deftly demonstrates that attacks against migrants are tightly bound to assaults against women\, people of color\, workers\, ill and disabled people\, and queer and gender nonconforming people. Against this history of barriers and assaults\, Bans\, Walls\, Raids\, Sanctuary mounts a rallying cry for a broad-based\, abolitionist sanctuary movement for all. \n\nA. Naomi Paik is Associate Professor of Asian American Studies at University of Illinois and the author of Rightlessness: Testimony and Redress in U.S. Prison Camps since World War II. \n\nUC Press Now: Urgent Conversations hosted by Booksmith \n\n\n\n\n\n8/3: A.
