The Constitution, The Courts, and Immigrants with Tom Gerety

Monday, July 13 at 7 p.m. ET

Online via Zoom
Free & open to all

The campaign to drive out undocumented (and even many documented) immigrants has come fully into view in the aftermath of the Minneapolis siege by federal agents. Tom Gerety will take up the major controversies in this campaign, including birthright citizenship, refugee asylum, the revocation of temporary protected status (TPS)--and the submission of immigration courts and procedures to an ideology of hostility to nearly all immigrants from nations scorned by the President and his administration.

Tom Gerety taught constitutional law through most of his career. He retired as Collegiate Professor of law and humanities at NYU.  He headed up the Brennan Center for Justice and was president of both Trinity and Amherst Colleges. He has law and philosophy degrees from Yale.
