    The Hart-Celler Act at 60 Reshaping American Immigration

    In this special episode of the Immigration Nerds Podcast, host Lauren Clarke welcomes renowned UCLA law professor Hiroshi Motomura for an in-depth discussion on the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965, also known as the Hart-Celler Act.

He describes the act as a "sea change" in American immigration law and frames it within the broader context of the Civil Rights movement of the 1960s. This special episode offers listeners a comprehensive and nuanced understanding of a pivotal moment in U.S. immigration history and its lasting effects on American society.
