Undocumented

Immigrant rights activist Aviva Chomsky examines the concepts of "illegality" and "undocumentedness," revealing how they were constructed to exclude and exploit certain groups, particularly Mexican and Central American populations. Blending history with personal stories, she explores the legal, social, and economic implications of being undocumented in the United States. This work offers a thoughtful and well-reported look at the shifting nature of immigrant status in America.
