About

This site is belongs to a post-graduate student now headed for law school. It is part of a growing network of pro-migrant voices online that seek to counter the hatred and ignorance spewed by hate groups and promote meaningful immigration reform. Beyond that, you will also find discussions about political economy, post-colonialism, neo-liberalism, subaltern studies, queer theory (and the l word) topped by an occasional rant about the order of things and educational resources now and then. Do leave comments whenever you can.
