IN CONVERSATION: IN THE SHADOW OF LIBERTY

In the Shadow of Liberty  — a new book from Stanford professor Ana Raquel Minian and Penguin Random House — is a critical contribution to the long and hidden history of immigrant detention in the U.S. 

Through their meticulous research and superb storytelling, Dr. Minian pinpoints key historical moments that chart the evolution of an immigrant detention system designed to exclude and deter people from seeking refuge by inflicting unimaginable pain and suffering. It is precisely the historical context we need to chart a more perfect path forward.
