Welcome to the latest installment of the Race Equity Project’s e-newsletter: Race, Poverty, and Immigration – Part 2. We hope you found Part 1 of our series informative.

In this e-newsletter, we present three articles.  The first provides concrete examples of racialized immigration policy at the local level in the United States.  The second provides a case study of piloting a VAWA clinic at a legal services organization.  Finally, the last article discusses the current debate over birthright citizenship under the Fourteenth Amendment.  We hope that you will find these articles provocative and inspiring.

The Intersection of Race and Class in U.S. Immigration Law and Enforcement – Dean Kevin R. Johnson, U.C. Davis School of Law
