Unwelcome Shores is an ethnographic study of the Liberian refugee community in Staten Island, NY, shedding light on the racialization of Black refugees and the anti-Black racism they have experienced at every step of their migration journey. By privileging race as the lens of analysis, author Bernadette Ludwig reveals the significance of race in the lives of Liberians both prior to and after their immigration to the U.S.
