    100 years of immigration policies working to keep out immigrants

    100 years of immigration policies working to keep out immigrants

    President Biden just issued an executive order that can temporarily shut down the U.S.-Mexico border to asylum seekers once a daily threshold of crossings is exceeded. On this episode, we dig into how the political panic surrounding what many are calling an immigration "crisis" at the border, isn't new. And in fact...it's a problem of our own creation.

    White evangelical Christians are some of Israel's biggest supporters. Why?

    White evangelical Christians are some of Israel's biggest supporters. Why?

    As war continues to rage in the Middle East, attention has been turned to how American Jews, Muslims, and Palestinians relate to the state of Israel. But when we talk about the region, American Christians, particularly evangelical Christians, are often not part of that story. But their political support for Israel is a major driver for U.S. policy — in part because Evangelicals make up an organized, dedicated constituency with the numbers to exert major influence on U.S. politics.

    Falling in love in a time of colonization

    Falling in love in a time of colonization

    This week Code Switch digs into The Ministry of Time, a new book that author Kailene Bradley describes as a "romance about imperialism." It focuses on real-life Victorian explorer Graham Gore, who died on a doomed Arctic expedition in 1847. But in this novel, time travel is possible and Gore is brought to the 21st century where he's confronted with the fact that everyone he's ever known is dead, that the British Empire has collapsed, and that perhaps he was a colonizer.

    Why the trope of the 'outside agitator' persists

    Why the trope of the 'outside agitator' persists

    As protests continue to rock the campuses of colleges and universities, a familiar set of questions is being raised: Are these protests really being led by students? Or are the real drivers of the civil disobedience outsiders, seizing on an opportunity to wreak chaos and stir up trouble?

    In 'Chicano Frankenstein,' the undead are the new underpaid labor force

    Daniel Olivas's novel puts a new spin on the age-old Frankenstein story. In this retelling, 12 million "reanimated" people provide a cheap workforce for the United States...and face a very familiar type of bigotry.

    Exclusion, resilience and the Chinese American experience on 'Mott Street'

    Exclusion, resilience and the Chinese American experience on 'Mott Street'

    This week on the podcast, we're revisiting a conversation we had with Ava Chin about her book, Mott Street. Through decades of painstaking research, the fifth-generation New Yorker discovered the stories of how her ancestors bore and resisted the weight of the Chinese Exclusion laws in the U.S. – and how the legacy of that history still affects her family today.

Intersectionality at its best

The hosts do such an amazing job covering all sides of the spectrum on race, identity and sense of belonging. My only problem is, is that the episodes are too short. Greetings from the Netherlands!
