\t\t\t\t\t Location: Scott-Bates Commons Salon C<\/strong> This all-day symposium, \u201cForbidden Subjects: Sex, Class, and Race and 150 years of Immigration Exclusions<\/strong>,\u201d commemorates the 150th anniversary of the first federal restrictive immigration law (the Page Act of 1875). We will be joined by other leading scholars of immigration history and law from around the country and JHU. The lecture symposium will offer a unique opportunity for interested students, faculty, and broader community members to come together around what will likely become an even more urgent topic in the new year.<\/p>\n TENTATIVE SCHEDULE:<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n 9:30am Introductory remarks<\/strong>: Julian Lim (JHU Department of History)<\/p>\n 10:00am Panel 1: on sex and family<\/strong><\/p>\n 1:00pm Panel 2: on labor and class<\/strong><\/p>\n 2:30pm Panel 3: on race and law <\/strong><\/p>\n 4:00pm reception and light refreshments<\/strong><\/p>\n Co-sponsored by the JHU Department of History and Program in Latin American, Caribbean, and Latinx Studies<\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t
