BAJI Reader

                                                 

The BAJI Reader is a new publication of the Black Alliance for Just Immigration.  It contains articles that expose the powerful forces that are forcing migrants across borders to find work and make a convincing case that African Americans and immigrants must come together to fight for social and economic justice for all.
