A rare, unflinching look at one of today’s most important
issues—from one of today’s most well-known journalists.
In this insightful, well-researched book, Peabody
and Emmy® Award-winning journalist Geraldo Rivera examines
the growth of the Hispanic population in the U.S., fueled
partly by what may be the single most divisive issue in
America today: illegal immigration. With objective clarity
and personal conviction, Rivera sheds light on an issue that
is muddled with confusion and prejudice —and too often
blamed for everything from terrorism to welfare.
Examining the past—his own parents’ struggle to be “real”
Americans, as well as the plight of other ethnic groups in
their quest for that dream—Rivera places the issue of
illegal immigration in a historic context, dispelling the
myth that we are facing an unprecedented crisis.
A
vital contribution to the ongoing debate about immigration,
His Panic is destined to reshape the way Americans
view the future of our country.
