Civil Disobedience as Strategic Resistance in the US Immigrant Rights Movement
Undocumented immigrants are removable from the nation at any time and their participation in political activism heightens this risk. Yet, undocumented organisers have been at the forefront of the immigrant rights movement. This article demonstrates how through their use of civil disobedience tactics, undocumented activists are in fact working to re‐conceptualise citizenship to include those who are not legally present in the country. Drawing on t…

Organizing While Undocumented
Undocumented immigrants in the United States who take part in social movement activism do so at great risk: the threat of deportation. Despite this risk, undocumented immigrant youth have been at the forefront of the national movement for immigrant rights. In their activism these youth have leveraged their identities as immigrants but also as queer individuals, people of color, and women. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork and in-depth interviews …
An Indigenous Futurity Approach to Decolonization

During the emergence of the coronavirus pandemic on the island, members of Independent Guåhan, the Commission on Decolonization's independence task force, envisioned what a decolonized future might look like, and in the process, engaged notions of…
Federal Immigration Laws and U.S. Empire
This article draws on the case of the Mariana Islands, the site of two U.S. territories – Guam and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI) – to examine the development and implementation of federal immigration laws in U.S. territories. While such laws have been enforced in Guam since the early 1950s, this has only been the case in the CNMI since 2008. I show how federal legislation has evolved over time to regulate migration from …
Migrant Illegality across Uneven Legal Geographies
Legal–Spatial Consciousness
Here we advance the concept of legal–spatial consciousness—an individual's awareness of how law and space are mutually formed and influential on their lives. Through this concept, we explore how undocumented youth in a variety of American destinations understand and experience migrant illegality. By examining how immigration law and local places are imbricated, we demonstrate how immigrant illegality is defined not only by a patchwork of municipa…
