a really wonderful, extremely readable history that grounds contemporary technologies of xenophobia in their foundational antecedents. naomi paik never loses sight of historical and contemporary organizing against policing and deportation, and proposes an "abolitionist sanctuary" that combines sanctuary's defensive logic with abolition's transformative one, and emphasizes both movements' shared commitments to caring for each other. the conclusion is also a great discussion of migrant justice movements in relation to indigenous nationhood/sovereignty!
