As the immigrant rights movement grows in size and energy, we need quick facts and deep history. This encyclopedic book gives us both.

They use a question and answer format, which allows them to directly address some of the most heated issues in this national debate. They've done a great job of identifying these hot-button points, and go about undoing the stereotypes, misinformation and prejudice that paralyze rational thought about immigration policy. In the process, they break down complex sets of ideas into their component pieces, giving each one its own question. This book is a great reality check, a good teaching tool, and a powerful weapon against racism." - David Bacon, Photojournalist and trade unionist, author of Communities Without Borders: Images and Voices from the World of Migration, "Inspiring and energizing, disturbing and challenging, informative and inquisitive, Interracial Justice is a thoroughly researched, even ground-breaking, tour de force." -Berta Esperanza Hernndez-Truyol,St. John's University, "Yamamoto's analysis offers an important insight: A group can simultaneously be oppressed by others more powerful than it and also oppress others less powerful. . . .
