Migrant Crossings examines the experiences and representations of
Asian and Latina/o migrants trafficked in the United States into
informal economies and service industries. Through sociolegal and
media analysis of court records, press releases, law enforcement
campaigns, film representations, theatre performances, and the law,
Annie Isabel Fukushima questions how we understand victimhood,
criminality, citizenship, and legality. Fukushima examines how
migrants legally cross into visibility, through frames of
citizenship, and narratives of victimhood. She explores the
interdisciplinary framing of the role of the law and the legal
system, the notion of "perfect victimhood", and iconic victims, and
how trafficking subjects are resurrected for contemporary movements
as illustrated in visuals, discourse, court records, and policy.
Migrant Crossings deeply interrogates what it means to bear witness
to migration in these migratory times-and what such migrant
crossings mean for subjects who experience violence during or after
their crossing.
