This course examines factors that drove immigrants from their native countries and to the U.S., discourse about immigration, and the lived experiences of immigrants with a focus on the "waves" of immigration from the colonial period to the 21st century. Topics include the relationship between immigration law and issues of gender, race, and ethnicity; immigrant workers and labor reform; ongoing debates about immigration policy and reform; and overarching questions about citizenship and civil liberties.
