CHAPTER

Challenges to Birthright Citizenship

This chapter analyzes the recent challenge to the 14th Amendment concerning birthright citizenship and the potential chaos stemming from the government's redefinition of citizenship for children born to undocumented immigrants. It examines the historical context of the amendment, including the landmark Wong Kim Ark case, and emphasizes the importance of the 14th Amendment in affirming citizenship rights, particularly for Black Americans. The discussion also addresses the implications of contemporary immigration policies on children and the misinterpretation of legal language that could lead to exclusionary practices.
