Description

The number of migrants worldwide has increased dramatically in the past forty years. This course will explore "hot topics" in migration, paying close attention to the intersections of gender, race, class, and nation. The topics include debates about undocumented (im)migrants, transnational families, and student activism in the immigrant rights movement. This course will draw on documentary films as well as readings that raise difficult and interesting moral, political, and academic questions.
