GOVT 424 Immigration Politics in the United States
Immigration has shaped the United States’ population, its culture, and its politics since before the formal founding of the country.

In this course, we will examine the ways in which immigration dynamics have shaped who is seen as an American, the laws which have been implemented, American governmental institutions, and American public opinion.
