Beautifully written narrative journalism and essayistic reflection: John Washington publishes in leading mainstream media outlets like The Atlantic, The Believer, and The Nation, and here makes a forthright case for open borders in an accessible style that will appeal to a broad readership.

Expert, well-connected author: This is Washington's second book on the subject of immigration. He is on the staff of a publication that covers the US-Mexico border and is based in Tucson. He is a longtime activist with border organization No More Deaths, and was the US editor of the leading Central American investigative news outlet, El Faro. He helped start NYC-DSA's immigration working group, and worked closely with Movimiento Cosecha.

High-profile endorsements and support: As an award-winning translator of leading Mexican and Central American authors like Anabel Hernandez and Oscar Martinez, the author's network of media supporters spans the border and includes front-line advocates and journalists. Jeremy Scahill has promised to help promote this book, and we can expect blurbs from Harsha Walia, Oscar Martinez, Nick Estes, Silky Shah, Francisco Cant?, Jeremy Scahill, Karla Cornejo Villavicencio, and others.

Speaking engagements: In conjunction with immigration advocacy organizations to which the author is connected, like Detention Watch Network, the Florence Project, ACLU Immigration Rights Project, NDLON, and others.
