It is a wider set of protections and humanitarian support for vulnerable newcomers. Sanctuary cities are the places where immigrants and their allies create safe spaces to rebuild lives and communities, often through the work of social movements and community organizations, or civil society. Philadelphia has been an important center of sanctuary and reflects the growing diversity of American cities in recent decades. One result of this diversity is that sanctuary means different things for different immigrant, refugee, and receiving communities. Vitiello explores the migration, settlement, and local and transnational civil society of Central Americans, Southeast Asians, Liberians, Arabs, Mexicans, and their allies in the region across the late twentieth and early twenty-first century. Together, their experiences illuminate the diversity of immigrants and refugees in the United States and what is at stake for different people, and for all of us, in our immigration debates. 606 $aImmigrants$zPennsylvania$zPhiladelphia$xSocial conditions 606 $aNoncitizens$xGovernment policy$zUnited States$2Change the Subject Project$2Change the Subject Project 606 $aPolitical refugees$zPennsylvania$zPhiladelphia$xSocial conditions 606 $aRefuge (Humanitarian assistance)$zPennsylvania$zPhiladelphia 606 $aRefugees$zPennsylvania$zPhiladelphia$xSocial conditions 606 $aSanctuary movement$zPennsylvania$zPhiladelphia 606 $aSOCIAL SCIENCE / Emigration & Immigration$2bisacsh 615 0$aImmigrants$xSocial conditions. 615 0$aNoncitizens$xGovernment policy 615 0$aPolitical refugees$xSocial conditions. 615 0$aRefuge (Humanitarian assistance) 615 0$aRefugees$xSocial conditions. 615 0$aSanctuary movement 615 7$aSOCIAL SCIENCE / Emigration & Immigration. 676 $a362.8709748/11 700 $aVitiello$b Domenic$01125290 712 02$amultiple sources 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910585601203321 996 $aThe Sanctuary City$92906281 997 $aUNINA
