Is American Citizenship A Myth?
Published 3 months ago
Description
Who gets to be an American citizen? And what rights does citizenship afford? Those questions are explored in the new book, “Citizenship: Notes on an American Myth.” Local author Daisy Hernández blends personal stories with a retrospective on how citizenship was initially constructed and how it’s changed over time. In the Loop sits down with the author to discuss.
