This is the untold history of the United States Border Patrol from
its beginnings in 1924 as a small peripheral outfit to its
emergence as a large professional police force. To tell this story,
Kelly Lytle Hernandez dug through a gold mine of lost and unseen
records stored in garages, closets, an abandoned factory, and in
U.S. and Mexican archives. Focusing on the daily challenges of
policing the borderlands and bringing to light unexpected partners
and forgotten dynamics, "Migra! "reveals how the U.S. Border Patrol
translated the mandate for comprehensive migration control into a
project of policing Mexicans in the U.S.-Mexico borderlands.
