About the Book

In an era marked by heated debates on the immigration crisis and an assault on immigration policies, "Before and After the Border: One Man's Journey Home" offers a compelling and humanizing immigration narrative. Dr. Ricardo O. Sánchez brings the immigrant journey to life, recounting his experience as an unaccompanied minor navigating the complexities of the American immigration system. This intimate portrayal unravels the myths about immigration, such as "They take our jobs," and explores the deep socio-economic and cultural causes behind mass migration from Latin America, Asia, and beyond. Through the lens of American history and the transformation of America as a nation of immigrants, Dr. Sánchez sheds light on critical issues like family separation, undocumented workers, asylum seekers, and the challenges faced by immigrant communities. His story intersects with themes of sanctuary cities, safe havens, and the compassionate immigration policies rooted in welcoming the stranger and the Christian response to immigration. This book bridges the cultural gap, exploring the acculturation process, cross-cultural struggles, and the emotional toll of living as an undocumented citizen in the shadows. From Ellis Island to the border crisis, and from transnational families sending remittances to the political backlash epitomized by debates like the Trump Wall, Before and After the Border reveals the shared humanity that binds us all. A testament to resilience, hope, and the search for belonging, this immigration review delves into the broader impact of immigration on democracy in America. Whether addressing global migration, the role of immigrant Catholics, or the enduring question of "Is the American Dream a beautiful lie?" Dr. Sánchez' story offers solutions to illegal migration while advocating for a compassionate, informed approach to immigration wars. For anyone seeking the facts about immigration, understanding the Asian and Latin American immigrant experience, or grappling with the realities of undocumented workers, Before and After the Border is a must-read. It is a profound reminder that no human is illegal and that America's strength lies in embracing its diversity and immigration evolution. Welcome to the United States-where every immigrant's journey shapes the collective story of finding home.
