Menjívar and Seitz unpack how 1996 immigration law retroactively reclassified misdemeanors as deportable felonies — creating a class of crimes that apply only to immigrants — and how the removal of "sensitive locations" protections has brought enforcement into courthouses, schools, and churches. Includes firsthand courtroom accounts, data debunking crime-rate myths, and a closing charge to listeners: seek out immigrants' stories directly rather than relying on media snippets.
