520    "A timely look at the evolution of US immigration policy 
       and how the increasingly hostile anti-immigrant climate is
       detrimental to our nation's economic well-being"--
       |cProvided by publisher 
520    "As the US deports record numbers of illegal immigrants 
       and local and state governments scramble to pass laws 
       resembling dystopian police states where anyone can be 
       questioned and neighbors are encouraged to report on one 
       another, violent anti-immigration rhetoric is growing 
       across the nation. Against this tide of hysteria, Pilar 
       Marrero reveals how damaging this rise in malice toward 
       immigrants is not only to the individuals, but to our 
       country as a whole. Marrero explores the rise in hate 
       groups and violence targeting the foreign-born from the 
       1986 Immigration Act to the increasing legislative madness
       of laws like Arizona's SB1070 which allows law officers to
       demand documentation from any individual with "reasonable 
       suspicion" of citizenship, essentially encouraging states 
       and municipalities to form their own self-contained nation
       -states devoid of immigrants. Assessing the current status
       quo of immigration, Marrero reveals the economic drain 
       these ardent anti-immigration policies have as they 
       deplete the nation of an educated work force, undermine 
       efforts to stabilize tax bases and social security, and 
       turn the American Dream from a time honored hallmark of 
       the nation into an unattainable fantasy for all immigrants
       of the present and future"--|cProvided by publisher
