Marilynn S. Johnson
The impact of the 1965 Immigration Act on the city of Boston
Commendation Quotes: Many researchers and scholars have hinted at, talked about, and explored the possibility of writing a history of the new immigrants in the Boston area. Johnson has taken on this prodigious task and produced a very strong piece of work. Commendation Quotes: The Boston case is a special one, as the city has been neglected by immigrant historians, except for the pre-1945 era and the issues of religion and politics. Johnson is bringing to light another history, one of immigration in recent years. Biographical Note: Marilynn S. Johnson is professor of history at Boston College. She is author of numerous books, including Street Justice: A History of Police Violence in New York City.
