In this episode of Deportation Nation, Darren Watts explores President Bill Clinton’s legacy on immigration enforcement.
From the passage of the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996 to the expansion of expedited removals, Darren examines how Clinton’s choices built the foundation for America’s modern deportation machine — and what it teaches us about power, fear, and systemic injustice.
