U.S. Immigration History   

The United States has historically been both a nation of immigrants and a nation wary of them. This course will explore the history of immigration to the United States, paying close attention to the paradoxes and ironies that have defined that history since the nation’s earliest days. We will trace changing migration patterns, examine the development of citizenship as a social and political construct, explain changes in immigration policy over time and their (intended and unintended) consequences, discover the roots of nativism, and assess the struggle for immigrants’ rights.
