[History Hounds] Building Walls: Immigration Restriction in American History with Bruce Zellers, Oakland University.

The iconic Statue of Liberty welcomes immigrants to the United States and introduces a vision of the nation as a collection of freedom-loving people from around the globe. Yet Americans have had complex feelings about immigrants—often despising them and resisting their arrival. Join us to learn about America’s complicated immigration history.
