Welcome to Movements in California, a podcast series created by the California Center for Ethics and Policy--or “CCEP”--at Cal Poly Pomona. This podcast will explore how migration and mobility are embedded in many of our public discourses, practices, and politics.
In this episode of the series, CCEP student fellow Rena Miller offers us two stories of immigrant families coming to the United States--one from Mexico and one from China. Her two interviewees and guests on the podcast discuss their unique challenges coming to this country and how they differ from the typical “immigration story” we see in the media and pop culture narratives. We hear sounds of the streets of Baldwin Park and Chinatown, important sites of these two stories. They also explore the role that US immigration policy, from the Chinese Exclusion Act to Operation Wetback, villanized immigrants arriving from different parts of the world.
We ask that if you like what you hear, if you care about these issues, please share our podcast with your friends, family, and colleagues.
