“Politics of Immigration” Co-author Featured in Swiss Weekly

Jane Guskin is quoted extensively in an article run in August by the Swiss German-language newsweekly WOZ. The full article is available in German at https://static.woz.ch/1833/us-migrationspolitik/coming-out-einer-papierlosen

Below is a translation of the section where Guskin is quoted.

The "Coming Out" of an Undocumented Immigrant

Ever since Donald Trump became US President, the eleven million paperless people have been living in greater fear than ever before. A lot is at stake, especially for undocumented youths like Cecilia.

By Caspar Shaller, WOZ
August 16, 2018
...Many [undocumented immigrants] have had bad experiences with going public, says Jane Guskin. She researches global migration at the City University of New York, has been active in the asylum rights movement since the 1980s, and is co-author of the book The Politics of Immigration, which is considered a standard leftist reference book on US immigration policy. She suggests meeting in a Bengali restaurant in Queens, the urban district with the highest foreign-born population density in the country.

"When Daca was introduced, there was great skepticism in the community," says Guskin. "To qualify, you had to tell the state where you live and work, where you go to school." Many were afraid that this information could be used against them. "It turns out they were right," says Guskin grimly. "Some people go to the immigration office for their annual appointment and are picked up and deported by the ICE agency!"

American media are full of reports of the consequences of this uncertainty: Mexican citizens storm the consulates to renew their passports so they can quickly leave the US in an emergency. The head of a large New York hospital reported at a press conference that migrants were shunning health care institutions. Instead, they would place injured or sick relatives in front of the emergency room door and run away. And because the hurdles are high, the number of new applications for Daca has fallen sharply. "It costs $ 500 to apply. How can you pay for it if you have to work off the books?" Guskin asks. In addition, the forms are so complex that only lawyers can fill them out.

Anyway, Daca is just a poor compromise, says the longtime activist Guskin. There is no path to naturalization. No one is really willing to improve the legal situation of migrants. For decades the Republicans have been presenting themselves as protectors of an idealized America "from the foreign hordes," but in practice they have shown increasing interest in allowing a steady influx of cheap labor -- "completely disenfranchised, of course," says Guskin. "No one sets up a union or demands a minimum wage if the boss can threaten to call the immigration police."

This deception of the xenophobic Republican base was one of the reasons for Trump's electoral success. The Democrats, on the other hand, like to see themselves as defenders of minorities. But in reality, hardly any concrete action followed the inclusive rhetoric. At most there might be some little goodies before elections, if Democrats wanted to secure the votes of Latinos and Latinas. This is one of the reasons why many young migrants feel that the concept of "Dreamers" has become politically exploited. In the last elections less Latinas and Latinos voted for Hillary Clinton than expected.

"Obama, a Democrat, was the president who has deported the most people in US history," says Guskin. During his tenure, more than three million people were expelled. These mass deportations, the extension of the prison system and the militarization of the borders do not make Obama appear in the eyes of many migrants as the savior he is for many liberal Americans. He even introduced a fingerprint for migrants. The director of a migration organization told the New York Review of Books magazine: "Obama built this machine and then handed the keys to a maniac."...

May 1: "Politics of Immigration" Authors Interviewed at Immigrant Workers March

Click here to hear Mitchel Cohen's report for WBAI radio / Pacifica from the Immigrant Workers' Rights march on MayDay in New York City! (12 minutes)
Washington Square, May 1, 2017

MayDay 2017 saw a resurgence of working class marches and protests around the world. Here in New York City, WBAI/Pacifica radio's Mitchel Cohen joined a march of immigrant workers, who paraded through the west Village. Mitchel interviewed Diana Marino from Brandworkers, who has been unionizing the mostly immigrant workforce in the baking industry at Amy's Bread.

Mitchel Cohen also caught up with David L. Wilson and Jane Guskin during the march, whose newly revised book, The Politics of Immigration:Questions and Answers, will be published by Monthly Review later this month.

Interview: "The Politics of Illegal Immigration"

By Elizabeth Jackson, Australian Broadcasting Corporation
August 15, 2010

ELIZABETH JACKSON: American author David Wilson has written extensively about illegal immigration. He's the co-author of a book titled The Politics of Immigration: Questions and Answers.

I asked David Wilson whether he saw any similarities in the way politicians in the US and Australia are dealing with illegal immigrants and asylum seekers?

DAVID WILSON: From what I've heard about Australia, yes, it seems like we're hearing solutions to the problem that, you know, that make politicians look as though they're being very hard line in cracking down on things.

And certainly in the case of the US, those policies simply don't work and that's been proven over and over again for the past 30 years. [...]

Haiti: Struggle and Solidarity After the Cataclysm

An Interview with Batay Ouvriye

by David L. Wilson, World War 4 Report
June 1, 2010

It is now more than four months since a 7.0 magnitude earthquake hit Haiti, leveling much of the Port-au-Prince area and killing nearly a quarter of a million people. Haiti has dropped out of the headlines—predictably—but the crisis hasn't gone away. Earthquake survivors still have very limited access to food, employment, and medical care; most of the 1.7 million people left homeless by the earthquake (according to new figures from the United Nations) go on living in the hundreds of improvised encampments in and around the capital.

I had an email conversation in April with Paul Philomé, a spokesperson for the leftist group Batay Ouvriye (Workers' Struggle), about grassroots organizing in Port-au-Prince since the earthquake. Batay Ouvriye is best known outside Haiti for its unionization efforts over the past two decades in the tariff-exempt apparel assembly plants—the sector that the "international community" is again promoting as an engine of economic development.

Victor Toro is a citizen and national of Chile who was jailed and tortured there because of his opposition to the illegitimate Pinochet government (1973-1990). For more than 23 years, Victor and his wife Nieves Ayress (also a survivor of torture by the Pinochet regime) have been living in New York City and engaging in activism in the South Bronx, where they founded Vamos a La Peña, a nonprofit community organization that has served as a space for free expression and people's power for undocumented workers and other disenfranchised community members. On July 6, 2007,Victor Toro was arrested by US Border Patrol, an agency of the US Department of Homeland Security, while on board an Amtrak train in Rochester, New York. He was released on bond on July 9 and is now seeking political asylum with the help of his legal team. His wife Nieves is a US citizen; their daughter, Rosita Toro, is a legal permanent resident.

Dos Articulos Sobre "The Politics of Immigration"

Desmitificando la inmigración ilegal
Silvina Sterin Pensel, El Diario-La Prensa
04/13/2008

Desmitificando la inmigración ilegal
COMUNIDAD - 04/13/2008
Silvina Sterin Pensel

------------------------------

Nueva York/especial para edlp — A través del grueso armazón de sus lentes, el periodista dominicano Orlando Martínez lo observa todo desde un mural que lo muestra en su juventud, antes de ser asesinado por militares afines al gobierno de Joaquín Balaguer. "Gran periodista. Una lástima que lo perdimos", dice el dueño de la librería Caliope donde está la pintura.

En la librería, ubicada en la calle Dyckman, en Inwood, la tertulia está por comenzar. Como todos los jueves, vecinos de la zona y de Washington Heights se reúnen en Caliope a conversar de sus cosas y escuchar a los invitados que César, el librero, les tiene preparados.

Sentados en primera fila, esperando que les toque el turno de presentarse están Jane Guskin y David Wilson, autores de 'The politics of Immigration'; o 'La Política de la inmigración', un libro que en 141 páginas aborda todo aquello que uno alguna vez quiso saber sobre la inmigración y no se atrevía a preguntar o, mejor dicho, no sabía a quién preguntar.

'¿Los políticos están creando pánico acerca de la inmigración?; ¿Por qué la gente elige venir a este país?; ¿Es culpa de Estados Unidos que otros países tengan problemas? ¿Es fácil ser ilegal? ¿Es verdad que los inmigrantes traen a toda su familia o la dejan en su lugar de origen?; ¿Los inmigrantes cometen más crímenes que la gente de acá?'

Los autores tratan todo tipo de temáticas relativas a la inmigración, principalmente, la ilegal. Desde lo que sucede en la frontera con México hasta el impacto que tienen los inmigrantes en el medio ambiente, la salud y la cultura norteamericanas pasando por el 11 de septiembre y tocando además la problemática de las redadas y la deportación.

"Escribir el libro nos tomó nueve meses", comenta Jane, una americana con rostro juvenil y sin maquillaje que domina perfectamente el español. "Finalmente dimos a luz a nuestro bebé. Bah, una beba", dice bromeando, "porque la inmigración es mujercita".

Sentado muy cerquita de un libro titulado 'Por la ruta de los Coyotes', David cuenta cómo surgió el proyecto de este libro tan preguntón. "Queríamos desbancar los mitos más comunes sobre la
inmigración; retrucar las diez cosas más descabelladas que se dicen contra los inmigrantes ilegales. Lo que pasó es que la editorial –Monthly Review Press- nos propuso el tema y una vez que dijimos que sí caímos en la cuenta que los mitos alrededor de los inmigrantes son muchos más que diez".

Utilizando un lenguaje llano, sin rebusques, 'La Política de la Inmigración', se pregunta todo aquello que alguna vez alguien nos preguntó y en su momento nos dejó sin respuesta. "Elegimos este formato de preguntas y respuestas para que cada cosa que explicamos sea más fácil de digerir, de procesar", comenta Jane.

Algunos por ignorancia; otros con ingenuidad y otros definitivamente con mala espina, lo cierto es que mucha gente realiza afirmaciones hirientes o simplemente falsas sobre los inmigrantes ilegales, sin documentos, fuera de estatus, sin papeles o indocumentados –las distintas denominaciones que se leen en el libro- y a veces cuando escuchamos estas cosas nos quedamos sin saber que responder. "Nuestro libro es una herramienta para tener esa respuesta y no una respuesta de sentido común o basada exclusivamente en las emociones. Con David realizamos un trabajo exhaustivo de investigación para responder a cada pregunta", afirma Jane.

Ella ronda los 40 y el probablemente los 70. Jane luce como una mochilera, vestida con ropa cómoda, un tanto desalineada y David bien podría ser un bibliotecario, absorto en su mundo de letras y obras que resisten el paso del tiempo. Lo cierto es que ella es de Indiana y el de Washington DC y que se conocieron aquí en Nueva York en 1990 cuando ambos militaban en una organización llamada Red de Solidaridad con Nicaragua.

Ambos habían viajado a ese país en los '80's durante el furor Sandinista y en los 90's seguían los destinos del país centroamericano desde la Gran Manzana. "Era la época en que asumió Violeta Chamorro, después de Daniel Ortega, y había mucha desinformación, muchos rumores y la prensa aquí hasta cometía errores. Nosotros intentábamos dar un punto de vista mejor informado", narra David.

Para hacerlo publicaban un boletín semanal de noticias sobre Latinoamérica que aún hoy siguen editando robándole tiempo a sus trabajos regulares: David es programador de computadoras y Jane trabaja en el Instituto por la Memoria de Abraham J. Muste, un pacifista, y la organización promueve, precisamente, la paz y la no violencia.

Enamorados de los movimientos populares, tanto Jane como David, se distancian de partidos políticos, ideologías y los poderosos de turno. "Si hay una mina y los mineros se organizan en pro de lograr algo; allí estamos. Con los sindicalistas que luchan contra alguien que los explota; allí estamos. Esta es una época en la que es difícil tomar partido por una bandera en particular, ya nada es blanco o negro, hay muchos matices. Por eso nosotros estamos con la gente y sus problemáticas que son las verdaderamente genuinas", afirma Jane.

El de la inmigración fue un tema que les intereso siempre. Jane esta casada con un colombiano de Medellín que fue ilegal. Las vivencias de Esneider, -"con quien llevamos dieciséis anos juntos"- hicieron que Jane conozca de cerca lo que vive aquél que transita por la vida sin papeles. "Es durísimo", afirma. El casamiento le dio estatus legal y terminó con su odisea. "Los papeles fueron una razón primordial para casarnos pero nosotros ya éramos una pareja bien consolidada", dice. "No vaya a ser que nos vengan a buscar las autoridades", agrega con ironía. Jane le dedico el libro a su marido. David tiene un roommate peruano y viajó varias veces a México. Hoy vive en Flushing donde dice que "Hasta los mexicanos hablan en coreano, es increíble".

Con el libro que, pronto se traducirá al español, pretenden generar un debate. "Quisiéramos cambiar esta ola de tensión que rodea al tema de los inmigrantes. Actualmente hay un clima muy negativo en torno a los inmigrantes ilegales. Nosotros estamos a favor de la amnistía para quienes están aquí ilegalmente pero eso no resuelve el problema a futuro".

Jane y David definen su obra como una con la cual contestarle a Lou Dobbs, -el recalcitrante conductor de CNN- y a todos quienes basan sus posturas sobre los indocumentados en mitos o verdades a medias y conceptos tergiversados o forzados.

"Ser legal o ilegal es una categoría. Hubo un tiempo", sostiene David, "en el que ser un esclavo prófugo era una afrenta a la ley. Hoy vemos eso con horror. Quizás en un futuro ser una persona sin papeles y ser perseguido por las autoridades también sea visto como algo aberrante".

Dialogues on Immigration

Have you heard an anti-immigrant argument that you feel is wrong, but need the facts to contest? (For example: "Immigrants are a drain on socialservices.") Do you have your own fear or concern about the issue? (For example: "Are the lowest-paid US-born workers really hurt by immigration?") Bring these arguments and concerns to a dialogue, and we'll work together to develop responses using facts, rational reasoning and personal experiences. To set up a dialogue in your community, write us at thepoliticsofimmigration@gmail.com
