Faced with fewer legalization options, immigrants without legal status and their supporters have organized around the concept of the family as a political subject-a political subject with its rights violated by immigration laws. Drawing upon the idea of the "impossible activism" of undocumented immigrants, Amalia Pallares argues that those without legal status defy this "impossible" context by relying on the politicization of the family to challenge justice within contemporary immigration law. The culmination of a seven-year-long ethnography of undocumented immigrants and their families in Chicago, as well as national immigrant politics, Family Activism examines the three ways in which the family has become politically significant: as a political subject, as a frame for immigrant rights activism, and as a symbol of racial subordination and resistance. By analyzing grassroots campaigns, churches and interfaith coalitions, immigrant rights movements, and immigration legislation, Pallares challenges the traditional familial idea, ultimately reframing the family as a site of political struggle and as a basis for mobilization in immigrant communities. 410 0$aLatinidad. 606 $aImmigrant families$zUnited States 606 $aFamilies$xPolitical aspects$zUnited States 606 $aImmigrants$zUnited States$xSocial conditions 606 $aImmigrant families$zIllinois$zChicago 606 $aImmigrants$zIllinois$zIllinois$zChicago$xSocial conditions 607 $aUnited States$xEmigration and immigration 607 $aUnited States$xEmigration and immigration$xGovernment policy 607 $aChicago (Ill.)$xEmigration and immigration 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aImmigrant families 615 0$aFamilies$xPolitical aspects 615 0$aImmigrants$xSocial conditions. 615 0$aImmigrant families 615 0$aImmigrants$xSocial conditions. 676 $a325.73 700 $aPallares$b Amalia$f1965-$01051337 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910459915903321 996 $aFamily activism$92481779 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01598nam 2200385 n 450 001 996392988403316 005 20221108085242.0 035 $a(CKB)1000000000683556 035 $a(EEBO)2264212030 035 $a(UnM)99829245 035 $a(UnM)9927961900971 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000683556 100 $a19950528d1648 uy | 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurbn||||a|bb| 200 04$aThe learning of common assurances.
