Description:
xi, 226 p. ; 21 cm.
Bibliography:
Includes bibliographical references (p. 224-2261).
Summary:
"Ungrateful, opportunistic, moochers, dangerous, incompatible with our values and our way of life... Every immigrant demographic has heard these descriptors at some point in their migration history.
We
, the
Others
explores the xenophobia, ethno-nationalism, and the fear of the 'other' that is at the root of the belief that immigration is a polluting force. Gleaned from the author's personal family history as the second-generation daughter of Greek
immigrants
, and from her research as a journalist and columnist covering identity politics and social issues in Quebec and
Canada
for the past 20 years,
We
, the
Others
courageously tackles this country's history and practices, divisive legislation like Bill 21, and various nationalist movements that have influenced our immigration policies. It is also a look at inter-generational struggles, conflicting loyalties and heartfelt questions of
belonging
