DeGenova's college roommate posted about his background. Big surprise, DeG's a Trotskyite.

overthrowing a regime whose brutality was long sustained by none other than the U.S.

This is a big lie in the classic sense that it has been told so many times that not even this post corrects it.

The U.S. marginally supported Iraq over Iran during the Iran/Iraq war. But where are the arms that we sent them? Where are the Iraqi Abrams tanks? Where are the M-16s? Where are the McDonald Douglas Jets?

The fact is that Iraq has been primarily sponsored, and is still suppored by this jerks favorite nation, the USSR/Russia. And the unequivical proof are the munitions used by Iraq.

De Genova is simply a hate-filled idiot. He should be fired, run out of the country, and forced to work for a living in the University of Tehran, where they share his views.

Here's a quote from his C.U. website. All you need to know about this little commie in academic's clothing. No doubt Che Guevera is his hero!

The central concerns of my research and teaching include: labor and class formation, racialization, the production of urban space, nationalism, the politics of citizenship, and transnational social processes, especially migration. My ethnographic research explores the social productions of racialized and spatialized difference in the experiences of transnational Mexican migrant workers within the space of the U.S. nation-state. More specifically, I examine transnational urban conjunctural spaces that link the U.S. and Latin America as a standpoint of critique from which to interrogate U.S. nationalism, political economy, racialized citizenship, and immigration law. This work contributes to a reconceptualization of Latin American, Latino, and "American" (U.S.) Studies. Likewise, I am interested in the methodological problems of ethnographic research practice and the limits of anthropological disciplinary forms of knowledge and modes of representation.
