About this listen

 We take a deeper look at the creation and enduring legacy of the country’s first detention center, Angel Island, and examine how the past reflects the complexities of today’s immigration matrix. Reporter Andrea Gutierrez visits Angel Island and hears from a Chinese descendant whose ancestor fought against her deportation in the 1920’s. Find an annotated transcript at our website here.
