American Citizenship and Its Decline: Illegal Immigration and the Loss of National Sovereignty

  • Summary

  • On this episode of The Hillsdale College Online Courses Podcast, Jeremiah and Juan discuss Juan's journey to citizenship before introducing Victor Davis Hanson.

    Citizenship is rare in human history but essential to free government. Today, the constitutional rule of citizens in America is threatened by a new form of government, unaccountable to the people, in which power is held by a ruling class that seeks to transform our society. In this eight-lecture course, students will examine the origins and history of citizenship in the West and the grave challenges American citizenship faces today.

    America’s founding principle of equality created an opportunity for people from all over the world—regardless of race or birth—to immigrate to the United States and become full citizens. This led to a system of immigration that proceeded according to established laws and required a willingness and ability to assimilate into American society. These criteria have been abandoned in favor of a system of widespread illegal immigration that erodes the rights of citizens.
