Abstract

In the second edition of her insightful book on Latino migration to North Carolina, Hannah Gill of the University of North Carolina’s Institute for the Study of the Americas and the Center for Global Initiatives, recalls an anti-immigrant protest rally that occurred in April 2008 in Washington, the county seat of Beaufort County, North Carolina. More than one hundred people walked through the streets of Washington to attend a meeting of the Beaufort County commissioners, which had been called to discuss the cost of undocumented immigrants on county health and social services.
