Undoing Border Imperialism by Harsha Walia
Why This Book Matters
Undoing Border Imperialism is a deeply analyzed guide to how immigration enforcement, colonialism, capitalism, and racial hierarchy are all interconnected systems that uphold global injustice. Harsha Walia draws from her work with migrant justice networks, Indigenous coalitions, community legal defense, and No One Is Illegal initiatives to offer a grounded vision of solidarity and liberation.
Walia reframes roots of the immigration crisis by connecting borders to settler colonialism, labor exploitation, and surveillance systems. She includes contributions from over twenty frontline organizers, offering multiple practical perspectives on movement strategy, coalition building, and sustainable resistance. This book combines memoir, case study, and toolkit into a resource suited for organizers working across migration, racial, Indigenous, and economic justice.
Use this book to deepen analysis, confront internal biases within movements, expand policy framing beyond national borders, and build alliances rooted in collective care and decolonial practice.
