520 "Integration Nation takes readers on a spirited and
compelling cross-country journey, introducing us to the
people challenging America's xenophobic impulses by
welcoming immigrants and collaborating with the foreign-
born as they become integral members of their new
communities. In Utah, we meet educators who connect newly
arrived Spanish-speaking students and U.S.-born English-
speaking students, who share classrooms and learn in two
languages. In North Carolina, we visit the nation's
fastest-growing community-development credit union,
serving immigrants and U.S.- born depositors and helping
to lower borrowing thresholds and crime rates alike. In
recent years, politicians in a handful of local
communities and states have passed laws and regulations
designed to make it easier to deport unauthorized
immigrants or to make their lives so unpleasant that
they'd just leave. The media's unrelenting focus on these
ultimately self-defeating measures created the false
impression that these politicians speak for most of
America. They don't. Integration Nation movingly reminds
us that we each have choices to make about how to think
and act in the face of the rapid cultural transformation
that has reshaped the United States. Giving voice to
people who choose integration over exclusion, who opt for
open-heartedness instead of fear, Integration Nation is a
desperately needed road map for a nation still finding its
way beyond anti-immigrant hysteria to higher ground"--
