What To Read When They Yell "Go Home" via The Rumpus
Via The Rumpus:
"America is experiencing a moral crisis around immigration. Our current administration’s policies and priorities allow for families to be torn apart, children’s lives to be placed in jeopardy, and misleading “facts” to stoke existing racial tensions into a fire of unnecessary hatred and fear.
In a political climate such as this, Go Home! is crucial reading material. Forthcoming next month on March 13 from Feminist Press, the anthology gathers writing on home from writers including Alexander Chee, Karissa Chen, Alice Sola Kim, Chang-Rae Lee, T Kira Madden, Rajiv Mohabir, Jennifer Tseng, Esmé Weijun Wang, Wendy Xu, and more. We asked editor Rowan Hisayo Buchanan to share a reading list in celebration of the book’s release."
