SUMMARY:NCJW/Essex's Lunch & Learn – Citizenship\, Immigration\, and Deportation: Then and Now
DESCRIPTION:The issues of immigration and deportation in the United States are deeply fraught. Throughout our history\, approaches to immigration have changed – from national quotas to explicit exclusion to mass deportations. The United States’s immigration policy is connected to broader political debates and perception of external threats. \nThe Jewish community has always identified with the plight of the immigrant; many of our families came to the United States as refugees. That shared history\, combined with the essential Jewish teaching to love our neighbors\, make the topic of Citizenship\, Immigration and Deportation in America endlessly interesting and relevant. \nJoin us for a timely and informative Lunch and Learn featuring Gary Darden\, a history professor at Fairleigh Dickinson University. His talk will cover numerous contentious times in our nation’s immigration history\, and we will explore the question of how this time is – or is not – different than what history has shown us.
