Coming To America: An Examination Of The U.S. Immigration Debate In Its Historical Context, Julie R. Davidson
Kaleidoscope
The United States is considered a country of immigrants, but a historical tension has existed between new arrivals and the “native” population. Policies regarding immigration have frequently mirrored the nativist fervor that is created in opposition to large influxes of immigrants.
