Immigration is one of the most misunderstood topics in America.  What we believe about immigration is based largely on myth, not facts. In Streets of Gold, authors Ran Abramitzky and Leah Boustan, provide ten years of pioneering research and new evidence about the past and present of the American Dream, debunking the myths. Topics cover immigrants’ upward mobility, assimilation, effect on the economy and why many current policy proposals are so misguided.
