The overt and implicit biases that pervade immigration law and influence actors in the immigration system inflict extensive harms on noncitizens, their families, and their communities. Moreover, the system's rampant discrimination and intentional subordination of noncitizens undermines the country's commitment to equality and justice for all. This book envisions a different kind of immigration jurisprudence: a feminist version of immigration law that fosters a country where diverse newcomers readily flourish with dignity.
By reimagining Supreme Court opinions, this volume reconsiders the norms behind immigration policies and practices. It uplifts feminist reasoning which values the perspectives of outsiders, exposes the deep-rooted bias in the legal opinions of courts, and illuminates the effects of ostensibly neutral policies that create and maintain oppression and hierarchy. This unique volume adds depth and social relevance to U.S. Supreme Court immigration law decisions while prioritizing critical feminist and race concerns in the redesign of immigration law.
