In this episode of Zooming In, The UnPopulist's editor-in-chief, Shikha Dalmia, talks with Greg Sargent of The New Republic about whether America has truly turned against immigration—or whether Trump's 2024 victory has been badly misread. Sargent argues that the election reflected a thermostatic, economy-driven backlash rather than a durable cultural shift, and that the past year and a half of mass deportations, ethnic purges, and high-profile cases like Kilmar Abrego Garcia's has snapped majorities back toward a consensus favoring legal pathways, humane treatment, and border security—but not Stephen Miller's vision of ethnic homogeneity. Along the way, Dalmia and Sargent dig into the thwarted history of comprehensive immigration reform, why a radical minority in the GOP has repeatedly blocked it, and the split among Democrats between the "salience bros" who counsel silence on immigration and those who see an opening to win the argument on favorable terms. They examine how figures like Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker and Texas Senate candidate James Talarico make the connection between immigration and authoritarianism in different registers, take apart David Frum's "if liberals won't enforce borders, fascists will" thesis, and close on why both believe the country's pro-immigrant, "shining city on a hill" ethos runs deeper than the populist rage of the last decade.© The UnPopulist, 2026Follow us on Bluesky, Threads, YouTube, TikTok, Facebook, Instagram, and X.

Between Two Voices: Understanding Code-Switching   Welcome back to Blended! Today, we're talking about code-switching. A couple of episodes ago, my panel and I were talking about intersectionality, this phrase come up and, I have to admit, I hadn't heard it before. It's one of the things I love about Blended, it always throws up something new. And I thought that, if it was new to me, it might be new to some of you as well. So we wanted to give code-switching its own deep dive. Today we'll be talking about what it means, why it happens, the hidden toll of sacrificing personal authenticity to fit in – and what we can do to create inclusive environments for everyone.  IN THIS EPISODE:   [00.54] Introductions to our Blended panelists.   ·         Leah – Author ·         Jeff – Community Consultant and Executive Producer and Host of Beats, Rhymes y Comunidad podcast ·         Dr Lola – ERG Strategist and Founder and Executive Director at Immigrants in Corporate  [06.22] The group explore what code-switching means and why it happens, and share some personal examples.   ·         Inauthenticity ·         Altered: o   Mannerisms o   Dress o   Language o   Body Language Context ·         Perception ·         Acceptance ·         Bias ·         Conscious/unconscious ·         Professionalism/credibility   ·         Intent ·         Stigma ·         'Cookie cutter' mold in the workplace ·         Archetypes – European white male centric   ·         Patriarchy ·         Impact of 'casual' tech CEO's ·         Raising children to code-switch ·         Awareness ·         Generational differences ·         Accountability ·         Too much, or not enough ·         Socioeconomic impact ·         Exhaustion ·         Diversity ·         Normalization ·         Fear of change – what are you really afraid of? ·         Ignorance ·         Courage to call things out   "It's how you alter the way you show up, whether it's in a conversation or an environment, from your mannerisms, your body language, the way you dress. Anything that's an inauthentic version of yourself that you're presenting in an effort to gain approval or acceptance." Jeff "I was raised on it… It was expected of us. This is what you do to adjust, to do the best you can to eliminate bias and assimilate into what's acceptable." Leah "It's changing. I'm being more intentional about creating a code of my own, because there's been too much stigma around how we show up – especially in the workplace." Jeff  "It's a burden, a backpack of rocks. But, after a while, we get used to it." Leah "As a black woman in America, you can't talk about this without talking about race and gender… Sometimes code-switching becomes armor… but it's exhausting." Dr Lola "Sometimes when we think about change it can get so big that you retreat, it almost feels impossible. Then I realized it just had to start with me... If you check yourself each time you're afraid and ask yourself, 'what about that bothers me so much?,' then you're creating an atmosphere that allows people to be themselves." Leah   [42.13] The panel reflect on the mental health impacts of code-switching, and how it shows up in community. ·         Identity ·         Shrinking yourself ·         Belonging ·         Code-switching with ill-intent ·         Recognition ·         Permission ·         Setting the tone ·         Culture ·         Forcing people to conform   "We talk about the word belong, but we don't actually interrogate what that requires." Jeff "How do we attract a different culture? If people are code-switching – intentionally or unintentionally – it's because something about that environment has told them they need to." Dr Lola   [57.19] The group discuss responsibility and who should take ownership of code-switching.    ·         Leadership ·         Safe spaces ·         Empathy ·         Grace ·         Understanding ·         Support ·         Curiosity ·         Allyship ·         Boundaries ·         Education ·         Open dialogue ·         Power ·         Visibility   "The leader has a responsibility to set the tone. I think, as individuals, we're always going to need to code-switch to a certain extent, but you shouldn't have to code-switch consistently, to your detriment." Dr Lola   [01.06.56] The panel share ideas for what leaders can do to tackle code-switching in the workplace.   ·         Training ·         Impact of AI ·         Shift focus to individual ·         Consistency ·         Vulnerability ·         Ability to get it wrong   [01.18.52] The group sum up their thoughts from today's discussion.    RESOURCES AND LINKS MENTIONED: You can connect with Leah, Jeff and Dr Lola over on LinkedIn.  

Anna O. Law, the Herbert Kurz Chair in Constitutional Rights in the Department of Political Science at City University of New York-Brooklyn Campus, has a deeply researched and important new book that weaves together different approaches to understanding American citizenship, especially in context of immigration and migration in the first century of the U.S. republic. Migration and the Origins of American Citizenship: African Americans, Native Americans, and Immigrants (Oxford University Press, 2026) engages three different disciplines, including Political Science, History, and Legal Studies/Law, to unpack the many different approaches to citizenship in the new republic. Law noted as we spoke that she had not intended to write a book about slavery, but it was impossible to think about or understand immigration in the United States, especially in the first century of the United States, without examining the particular place and role of those who were enslaved, since they were also immigrants to the United States, though it was a forced immigration, against their will and without their consent. Part of what Migration and the Origins of American Citizenship focuses on is that prior to the Civil War and the post-war constitutional Amendments, immigration was a patchwork, designed state by state, without a national standard or structure. Thus, we see a form of federalism that shifts from the states to the national government after the 14th and 15th Amendments, and after a number of pieces of legislation passed in the 1880s by Congress. Immigration becomes a more centralized issue and process as Congress passed a raft of restrictive laws focused mostly on Chinese individuals. These moves took the power to manage immigration away from the individual states and nationalized policies and regulations. At the same time, the story of American immigration is incomplete without understanding how the national government forcefully took land belonging to Native Americans and compelled their migration to other areas of the United States. In much the same way that we cannot understand immigration without understanding how slavery was intertwined with it, we also can't understand immigration to the United States without the history of how newly arrived immigrants displaced Native Americans and were given stolen land through national and state level regulations and policies. This is another entire area of history, policy, law, and regulation that Law unpacks to explore the interaction between Native Americans, sovereignty, land claims, and federalism in context of American citizenship and the complexity of who was and was not considered to be a citizen. Migration and the Origins of American Citizenship is a masterful work that helps us understand the contemporary battles over citizenship. As the Supreme Court is set to make yet another determination of how the 14th Amendment is to be applied to individuals born in the United States, Law's research and analysis has particular relevance and importance as we grapple with these ongoing disputes. Lilly J. Goren is a professor of political science at Carroll University in Waukesha, WI. She is co-host of the New Books in Political Science channel at the New Books Network.

Written by Jim Strouse and starring Casey Affleck as a depressed, failed novelist who returns to his Indiana hometown and connects with a local nurse (played by Liv Tyler), LONESOME JIM got a bit lost in the cavalcade of sad-sack dude movies in the mid 2000s, but is it worthy of discovery?

The history of Japanese Australians goes back over 100 years. However, it was severely interrupted by the mass deportation in 1946, following the WWII. A photographic exhibition depicting Japanese immigrants from the late 19th to the early 20th century—the period before this break—is currently being held in Cowra, New South Wales, known as the ‘Town of Reconciliation'. It is an attempt to highlight the role and contributions of Japanese immigrants during the period when Australia was beginning to take shape as a nation. We spoke to Dr Tetsu Kimura, a cultural historian at Flinders University who curated the exhibition, and Dr Peter Prince, a legal historian and Research Affiliate at the University of Sydney Faculty of Law, who talks about his research on Jiro Muramatsu, an Australian who is buried in Cowra as a Japanese national. - オーストラリアの日系移民。戦後1946年の日本への大量強制送還で、その歴史がいったん途切れてしまったことを知っていますか？その途切れる以前の日系コミュニティーが、オーストラリアの近代国家形成に果たした役割を紹介する写真展「Unspoken Contributions」が、ニューサウスウェールズ州カウラの日本庭園で開かれています。SBSの日本語放送は火木金の午後１時からSBS3で生放送！火木土の夜10時からはおやすみ前にSBS1で再放送が聞けます。SBS日本語放送ポッドキャストから過去のストーリーを聞くこともできます。無料でダウンロードできるSBS Audio Appもどうぞ。SBS 日本語放送のFacebookとInstagramもお忘れなく。

The Trump administration's aggressive immigration enforcement policies have resulted in an unprecedented number of people being held in detention facilities. Now, lawsuits across the country are alleging horrific conditions in those facilities, including excessive force, unsanitary conditions, and denial of medical care. On today's podcast, Executive Editor Natalie Orpett speaks with Elora Mukherjee, Director of the Immigrants' Rights Clinic at Columbia Law School, about the legal landscape of immigration detention. They discuss what rights detained immigrants have, why it's so hard to enforce them, and why it's even harder to get a remedy when rights are violated.

One year ago, a man detained by ICE in the Phelps County Jail died. That led a group of concerned residents in Rolla to form Abide in Love — an organization dedicated to helping immigrants and their families. The movement has spread to seven chapters across three states. St. Louis Public Radio's Jonathan Ahl was there as members of the group celebrated the one-year commitment to their efforts.

Tyler Anbinder focuses on the establishment of Castle Garden in 1855 as a centralized reception center to protect immigrants from swindlers. Hubert Glenn, an Irish-speaking clerk, managed record-keeping there for nearly 40 years, though most of these records were tragically destroyed in an 1897 fire. Anbinder also explores the political landscape, specifically the rise of the Know-Nothing Party. This nativist movement sought to disenfranchise Irish Catholics by extending naturalization requirements to 21 years. Although the party gained significant power in the mid-1850s, its influence faded as the national debate shifted toward the issue of slavery. (6)1870 CASTLE GARDEN

Tyler Anbinder discusses his book Plentiful Country, which explores the lives of Famine-era Irish immigrants in New York. The narrative begins with a poignant 1896 scene where Kate Murphy, a long-time domestic servant, pays to stand on a map of Ireland filled with native soil, illustrating the deep nostalgia felt by many immigrants. Anbinder explains that his research relies heavily on the detailed biographical records of the Immigrant Savings Bank. These records were meticulously kept as a security measure to prevent fraud in an era without government IDs, ultimately preserving the personal histories of thousands of Irish New Yorkers. (1)1829 FIVE POINTS

Tyler Anbinder describes the perilous Atlantic crossing and the arrival of immigrants in Manhattan, detailing the horrific conditions on "coffin ships," where diseases like typhus and cholera spread rapidly in cramped steerage quarters. Upon arrival, families like the O'Donnells often settled in the Five Points, New York's most impoverished neighborhood, living in subdivided industrial buildings like the "Old Brewery." Most Irish men found backbreaking work as day laborers in construction. Despite these hardships, many were entrepreneurial; some, like Dennis O'Keefe, leveraged wartime tobacco shortages to build fortunes, while others utilized regional networks to dominate specific trades.

Housing costs have exploded across the United States and everyone seems to have a scapegoat in mind. Some blame BlackRock. Others blame immigrants. Still others blame boomers who “refuse to downsize.” But none of these explanations get us close to the real answer. If you want to know what caused the housing affordability crisis, you have to look at the one actor powerful enough to restrict supply everywhere at once: the government.In this episode of the Libertarian Christian Podcast, David Rand takes us through the deeper structural causes of the crisis and explains why the United States went from a property‑rights‑based land system to a managerial, centrally planned regime that chokes off new housing. The result is predictable: scarcity, skyrocketing prices, and a generation locked out of home ownership.Rand is the president and CEO of the Land Liberty Movement, a new national nonprofit working to rebuild the American Dream by restoring property rights, and the freedom to build. He also produces content for Build the Dream, a Substack that explores housing policy.

Fowzia Adde is the founder and executive director of the Immigrant Development Center in Moorhead. It's an organization that helps immigrants and refugees navigate everything from higher education to entrepreneurship and small business loans. Adde is also leading an ambitious effort to create a cultural mall in downtown Moorhead, a project she hopes will become a hub for immigrant-owned businesses and community gathering. She talked to MPR News host Nina Moini in front of an audience at the Moorhead Public Library about her own experience coming to the United States more than 20 years ago. At that time, she learned that her nursing credentials did not transfer to the professional world in the Red River Valley. That experience sparked her passion to help others settle in the region.

By Phoebe Nieves & Simon Cocking. We look at The 8 Laws of Employee Experience, see more about this book here. This book comes at an interesting time, with a push back from some employers, HR departments and companies who feel that meeting the demands of employees have become too high. Initially when reading this book, we were wondering if there was an anti-woke agenda even being laid down here. Naturally in a period of flux and discourse between different generational needs, perspectives, and goals, it is a tricky path to navigate. Do new entrants have unrealistic expectations from what work should be offering them. At the same time, for employers, it can feel like the amount of time necessary to be expended, to get people up to speed, and delivering a suitable level of work done in return for renumeration offered, is seriously challenging. Jacob Morgan does a good job of finding a wide range of opinions and perspectives to help the reader navigate this challenging subject. The story of his own grandfather, newly arrived in the US, Georgian, barely speaking English, but clearly determined to work hard and return the faith in the first person who would hire him, is a smart, logical, and relevant anecdote. Immigrants are often some of the best hires, they want to work, have moved heaven and earth to even be in their new country, therefore they could be some of your best hires. It is unfortunate we live in a time where it is an easy, lazy, cheap trick to demonize those that look or sound different to us, when they may be a fantastic future asset to your company. Morgan aims to take through the nuances of how to find the best people people for your business, and to then continue to ensure there is value for all parties. Companies with the best retention rates are always to be looked at, and to also have an open door for returning ex-employees too, as they can then bring even more value. Therefore holistic attitudes and approaches can often bring more, and better value for the company and those who work for you, both now, in the past, and in the future. This was a thought provoking read, and one that will reward return visits too. More about the book here Organizations around the world have lost their way. It's time to get back to basics and focus on what really drives people and performance. In chasing talent, organizations have turned employee experience into an entitlement culture – lavishing perks without accountability, lowering standards in the name of empathy, and confusing short-term fixes with long-term solutions. The result? Performance suffers, leaders are scared to lead, and culture drifts. The 8 Laws of Employee Experience is a reset, a new framework to build a future-ready organization in an AI driven world. Best-selling author and professionally trained futurist Jacob Morgan shows that employee experience must return to its core: a value exchange where employees contribute, grow, and lead, and where organizations enable them to thrive. Based on over 100 CHRO interviews at companies like Verizon, Delta, Hilton, IBM,and LVMH, Morgan lays out eight unshakeable laws that form the new operating system for the future of work. This book isn't just about where we are today – it's about where employee experience is going over the next decade, and how leaders can design the future instead of being dragged into it. After reading this book you'll learn how to: Separate signal from noise in an era of trend-chasing with the STEEPLE methodology Discover the eight laws required to build a future-ready organization and how to implement them Use futurist frameworks like the Cone of Possibilities to map out multiple employee experience scenarios Conduct a future-ready audit to see where your company stands today and where it must go next Explore the five potential futures of employee experience and how to steer your organization towards the right one Challenge the myth that employee experience is about making people happy Combining...

One year ago, a few dozen Phelps County residents met at Public House Brewing Company in Rolla to share their thoughts about the U.S. Immigration and Customs detention of immigrants at the Phelps County Jail. That meeting led to the creation of Abide in Love: an organization that's since supported hundreds of people detained by ICE — along with their spouses and children. Today, the nonprofit has grown across Missouri and Oklahoma. STLPR Rolla correspondent and newscast editor Jonathan Ahl shares what the organization has accomplished this past year and what they hope to do moving forward.

Did they sink money into Trump just to watch It vanish? Imagine a MAGA voter who put his financial faith in Trump three times. In 2021, he bought $1,000 worth of stock in Trump Media and Technology Group (TMTG). In 2025, he bought $1,000 worth of $TRUMP meme coin. And he ponied up a $500 deposit on five golden, made-in-America Trump phones to give as gifts last Christmas. What is his $2,500 investment in all things Trump worth today?

Greisa Martinez Rosas joins The Great Battlefield podcast to share her struggles with our immigration system and working her way up to Executive Director at United We Dream, a youth led immigration group with more than a million members.

Since the late nineteenth century, the US federal government has enjoyed exclusive authority to decide whether someone has the ability to enter and stay in US territory. But freedom of movement was not guaranteed in the British colonies or early US. By contrast, voluntary migrants were met with strict laws and policies created by colonies and states, which denied free mobility and settlement in their territories to unwanted populations.  Migration and the Origins of American Citizenship: African Americans, Native Americans, and Immigrants (Oxford University Press, 2026) by Dr. Anna O. Law presents a story of constitutional development that traces the confluence of the logics of slavery and settler colonialism in early legal rulings and public policy about migration and citizenship. The book examines the division of labor between the national and state governments that endured for over a century, reasons why that arrangement changed in the late nineteenth century, and what the transformation meant for people subject to those regimes of control. Drawing into one study the migration policy histories of groups of people that are usually studied separately, and combining the methodologies of political science, history, and law, Dr. Law reveals the unmistakable effects of slavery and Native American dispossession in modern US immigration policy.  This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

I'm not a Lead Pastor, but I can't imagine anything more difficult than pastoring in today's political climate. We feel that these days are unique, but in reality they are not. History has much to teach us. Occasionally I like to bring Lead Pastors onto the podcast to talk about how they're navigating cultural issues. My guest today is Evan Wickham. Evan is the older brother of Phil Wickham, also a worship leader and songwriter, and the pastor of Park Hill Church in San Diego, California. Here's what's interesting: In his very church, he has a Christian Border Patrol Agent and Immigrant families, both trying to make sense of the times in which we live. Evan's perspective on how to pastor faithfully is enlightening. What does faithful pastoring look like? How do partisan politics compromise the gospel? Should our Sunday services address the latest issues in the news or should we just stick to the gospel? Is it possible to pastor from the political center? We can't escape politics, no matter how much we would like to try. Politics effect how we live together. The Bible is a political book. Conversations like this rarely make anyone happy but faithful leaders need to step into the tension. Don't miss the end of the conversation where we talk about worship, songwriting, and the presence of God in our churches. Evan's challenge were beautiful and surprising. Topics Covered: Deconstruction and staying in the Church Why Baby Boomer pastors are not known for letting go 3 signs that you are a healthy pastor The Matt Walsh vs Evan Wickham social media beef How to think about what President Trump is saying and doing How to Pastor both right and left leaning people in your congregation What the presence of God actually means Whether we should pursue revival or not Resources Mentioned: Show Sponsor: Planning Center Christ the King of Love by Evan Wickham Evan Wickham Substack Show Sponsor: Planning Center This episode is brought to you by Planning Center, helping you sync all your ministry details across your whole church.

This episode of the show is about America, ultimately. We're joined by Cristina Jimínez, author of the memoir Dreaming of Home: How We Turn Fear into Pride, Power, and Real Change and MacArthur genius grant recipient for a discussion of mental health in the immigrant and undocumented immigrant communities in light of events like the ICE surge, 9/11, and January 6th. Cristina fled Ecuador with her family when she was 13, landed in Queens, and, despite a lot of complicating factors having to do with legal status, went to college and graduate school. She was one of the founders of the advocacy group United We Dream, was a key player in the passage of DACA, Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, and was awarded a MacArthur genius grant. Cristina talks about the anxiety and depression that hangs heavily in vulnerable populations and also why she's actually incredibly optimistic and hopeful, even in these seemingly bleak times, because of how citizens responded to ICE in Minnesota.
