America Classifies the Immigrants: From Ellis Island to the 2020 Census
Joel Perlmann
Joel Perlmann traces the history of U. S. classification of immigrants, from Ellis Island to the present day, showing how slippery and contested ideas about racial, national, and ethnic difference have been. His focus ranges from the 1897 List of Races and Peoples, through changes in the civil rights era, to proposals for reform of the 2020 Census.
