Read my interview with The Conversation on my new book On the Side of ICE: Policing Immigrants in a Sanctuary State here:
Sanctuary policies have tripled since 2016, yet body camera videos from Chicago to California show local police acting as #immigration enforcers anyway. A law professor explains why the gap between what sanctuary laws promise and what actually happens on the ground is so wide. buff.ly/j99UlMU
Are sanctuary policing policies no more than a public relations facade?
In a new book based on hours of body-cam footage, a legal scholar shows how local police in sanctuary jurisdictions still help ICE − and why true non-cooperation is nearly impossible to enforce.

My #NewBook On The Side of ICE: Policing Immigrants in a Sanctuary State (@NYUpress.bsky.social) is finally out! In it, I narrate events when local police both implement #sanctuarycity policies and still assist ICE as captured by body-cam videos.
