In this week's episode, I have the honor of talking with Professor Shoba Sivaprasad Wadhia. We talk about how immigration policy has changed in the time of Trump and we also talk about why people on both sides of the aisle should care about immigration.
Dr. Shoba is the Samuel Weiss Faculty Scholar and Clinic Professor of Law at Penn State Law in University Park. Her research focuses on the role of prosecutorial discretion in immigration law and the intersections of race, national security and immigration.
She has published more than thirty law review articles, book chapters and essays on immigration law. In this episode Dr. Shoba shares the insights she received from the people she interviewed for her book on immigration enforcement as well as the role that being a lawyer had in writing and publishing her works.
Wadhia’s first book, Beyond Deportation: The Role of Prosecutorial Discretion in Immigration Cases, was published by New York University Press in 2015, and was given an honorable mention for the Eric Hoffer Book Award. Her second book, Banned: Immigration Enforcement in the Time of Trump, was released on September 10, 2019 by New York University Press. Her immigration textbook, Immigration and Nationality Law: Problems and Solutions, with co-authors Steve Yale-Loehr and Lenni Benson, was published by Carolina Academic Press in early 2020.
In 2018, Wadhia was named the inaugural Editor-In-Chief of the American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA) Law Journal, a partnership between AILA and Fastcase. In 2019, she served as the Enlund Scholar In Residence at the DePaul University School of Law. At Penn State Law, Professor Wadhia teaches doctrinal courses in immigration and asylum and refugee law. She is also the founder/director of the Center for Immigrants’ Rights Clinic (CIRC).
Dr. Shoba does a brilliant job of demystifying the machinery of Trump's immigration policy and she illustrates her perspective through stories, terms and concepts we can all relate to and take action upon. I know you are going to love this week's episode and Dr. Shoba's insight may just shine some light on some issues you have seen for yourself.
