ColorLines, review in the July/August issue:
“If ever there was a need for a pithy primer on immigration,
it’s now, and scholar-activist Aviva Chomsky has provided just that. She
considers myths from the book’s title, “immigrants don’t pay
taxes” and then gracefully and in plain language delivers arguments with
lessons on history, law and racism. In other words, this is the book to give
your xenophobic mother-in-law at the next family barbecue.”
