Perpetually Punished: Removing Criminality from Immigration Law | UC Davis Immigration and Nationality Law Review

Fri, Apr 19, 2024 @ 11:00am - 4:00pm

King Hall Kalmanovitz Appellate Courtroom 1001

Please join the UC Davis Immigration and Nationality Law Review for our 2024 Symposium Perpetually Punished: Removing Criminality from Immigration Law, featuring a keynote address from César Cuauhtémoc García Hernández on his new book Welcome the Wretched: In Defense of the "Criminal Alien." García Hernández reimagines immigration law untainted by the criminal legal system, arguing that, "[To insist] that life in the United States is rightly available only to people who steer clear of criminality [is to] ignore the basic reality that crime is a feature of life in the United States."

The keynote address will be followed by presentations by a panel of scholars and practitioners on the ways in which the criminal and immigration systems intersect to produce a harmful, second round of punishment.
