Mapping Deportations: Unmasking the History of Racism in U.S. Immigration Enforcement
Online

Join us to learn about “Mapping Deportations,” a classroom-friendly digital resource that invites visitors to see the history of U.S. immigration enforcement not as a series of disconnected events, but as a pattern. For more than two centuries, U.S. immigration enforcement has favored Europeans and their descendants while targeting non-white migrants for exclusion, removal, and punishment. Although U.S. immigration law and policy have shifted over time, the nation’s immigration enforcement regime has consistently produced this result.

Mapping Deportations offers data visualizations and a timeline to delve deeper into the details of deportation as well as immigrant exclusion, punishment, and the informal process known as “voluntary departure.”

Site co-creator and award-winning historian Kelly Lytle Hernandez will provide an introduction to the purpose and design of the site, including how the history of anti-immigrant legislation and racism are intertwined. Teachers will meet in small groups to brainstorm ways to integrate the site in curriculum, followed by time to ask Hernandez quetions and discuss ideas.
