In the Shadow of Liberty

In the Shadow of Liberty by Ana Raquel Minian is a detailed history that uncovers the often-hidden story of immigrant detention in the United States, tracing its roots back to the 1800s. Through compelling narratives of four diverse migrants, the book highlights the human impact of policies and practices that have long marginalized those seeking a new life, while also examining the broader implications on American society and rights. It offers a nuanced exploration of how sites of detention and rightlessness have evolved and their influence on current political and social issues.
