This boldly interdisciplinary volume explores the ways that historical and contemporary actors in the U.S. have crossed such borders—whether national, cultural, ethnic, racial, or conceptual. Together, these essays suggest new ways to understand borders while encouraging connection and exchange, even as social and political forces continue to try to draw lines around and between people UR - https://doi.org/10.1515/9781789204438?locatt=mode:legacy UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9781789204438 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9781789204438/original ER -
