The discussion revolves around the impact of immigration, particularly illegal immigration, on the Black community in the US.
Author Marcus Collins highlights the tension and competition over limited resources, emphasizing the impact on cultural collaboration and the complexities of illegal immigration.
Collins said, “Immigration, writ large, has a material impact on Black culture.”
“As new immigrants come in, they ultimately can create a collective of the marginalized, right? Which fosters collaboration among cultural producers,” he continued.
“I think when you start to think about illegal immigration, it creates a new frame by which we think about this influx, because it’s no longer just more underestimated people coming into the market,” explained Collins.
