In this riveting episode of Immigrantly, host Saadia Khan takes us on a powerful journey from the landmark 1898 Supreme Court case of Wong Kim Ark to Donald Trump’s 2025 executive order attempting to end birthright citizenship for children of undocumented immigrants. Through historical context, legal nuance, and racial reckoning, Saadia explores the fragility of the 14th Amendment and what’s at stake for immigrant families today.
