Shows how the association of the disease with ""tramps"" during the 1880s and 1890s and Dust Bowl refugees during the 1930s provoked exclusionary measures against both groups. This work provides a lens through which to view both the contemporary debate about immigration and the US response to the emergent global tuberculosis epidemic.
