"There is still anxiety around our first African-American president," says Mallika Dutt, executive director of Breakthrough. As immigration becomes a major issue once again, issues of race and citizenship get elided into one another, and media narratives contribute to the confusion. Mallika also notes that it is easier to crack down on immigrants (sending ICE to check up on workers cleaning up BP's mess) than oil companies, and that activists around these issues need to work together as civil disobedience rises around the country.
