Opis

I Used To Be An Illegal is a powerhouse non-fiction work that takes readers through the complicated intricacies and passionate topics of immigration. The book begins as JG Monaco shares the very personal tale of how he and his family arrived in America and eventually became citizens. Also included are the stories of other immigrants and their struggles to arrive in what would become their new home. As these stories unfold, the concept of immigration is taken from a remote talking point on an evening news program to an intimate tale of someone who might be a friend or neighbor. JG Monaco's brave retelling of both his childhood and the process he followed on his trail to becoming an American citizen after being undocumented in the United States is not only intriguing but also timely. The author takes the tale a step further, though, as he highlights the implications of enacting poorly written immigration legislation, such as the Arizona Law. Finally, Monaco proposes reasonable changes to the existing immigration process which might alleviate the current challenges while allowing all sides of the debate to retain their human dignity.
