Inspired by discussion around why society appears to deem people of colour as bad immigrants – job stealers, benefit scroungers, undeserving refugees – until, by winning Olympic races or baking good cakes, or being conscientious doctors, they cross over and become good immigrants, editor Nikesh Shukla has compiled a collection of essays that are poignant, challenging, angry, humorous, heartbreaking, polemic, weary and – most importantly – real.
May inspirasyon ng talakayan sa paligid kung bakit lipunan ay lilitaw upang itinuturing mga tao ng kulay bilang masamang imigrante – stealers trabaho, benepisyo scroungers, hindi karapat-dapat refugee – hanggang, sa pamamagitan ng panalong karera Olympic o pagbe-bake magandang cake, o pagiging matapat doktor, i-krus ito ay higit sa at maging mabuting imigrante, editor Nikesh Shukla ay pinagsama-sama ng isang koleksyon ng mga sanaysay na maanghang, mapaghamong, galit, nakakatawa, nakakasakit ng damdamin, pagtatalo, pagod at – pinaka-mahalaga – real.
