What does it mean to be an immigrant in the United States today?
Attitudes about the great melting pot have taken a sharp turn
toward insularity in recent years, as the 9/11 attacks and waves of
undocumented workers seem to have eroded America's long-standing
belief in the value of immigration. Yet the families in From Every
End of This Earth conclusively demonstrate that critics are
wrong--that in the age of Barack Obama, the son of an immigrant
from Kenya, newcomers from around the globe continue to renew
America's greatness with their courage and character.
As the political debate rages on, Steven V. Roberts sheds light
on the enormous contributions these individuals continue to make to
the fabric and future of America.
