Would such groups would feel this way if they read some of the literature that we have? http://t.co/ece6y4yZTI #DukeMM

Today's conversation made me question the importance of collective memory in nation-building. Is it inclusive or exclusive? #dukemm

The President will address the nation tomorrow about the steps he's taking to help fix our broken immigration system. http://t.co/NgrlmkUgAS

I disagree w/ Koopman's view. Forcing a culture upon someone does more harm than good; it should be more organic. #DukeMM

Theories of multiculturalism remind me of our debate about Kurdistan. Are their rights / freedoms being violated? #DukeMM

[S. H. @SamFocus14]

Identity was the focus of today's talk / the general course. It makes me wonder, why do we practice "othering" so much? #dukemm

@jay_oh_frey Brilliant analogy! Remittances are like alumni donations & these people have strong ties to one location #DukeMM

I like Diogenes' focus on traits that transcend nationality. The birthplace lottery idea is steeped in Stoic rhetoric. #DukeMM

[S. H. @SamFocus14]

Loved the example showing how Haitian media is vital in transnational identity. Does media play the same role today? #DukeMM

This article speaks to Dr. Flaim's work. It begs the question, what's the state's obligation to the Rohingya? http://t.co/QDyrnl772V #DukeMM

"He’s going to burn himself if he continues down this path" Boehnor on Pres. Obama's immigration strategy http://t.co/xa6Xjj1C50 #Dukemm

[S. H. @SamFocus14]

Dr. Flaim made great points about the amorphous nature of identity. It's hard to quantify, yet we use such rigid categories w/ it #DukeMM

[S. H. @SamFocus14]

I wonder if children who are mislabeled as adults receive justice for this mistake. If so, how is it implemented? #DukeMM

[S. H. @SamFocus14]

The de facto / de jure dichotomy & emphasis on registration reminds me of Robertson's informationalized capitalism #DukeMM

[S. H. @SamFocus14]

Tonight's IDC film posed questions about identity and patriotism that were similar to ones that we've been exploring #DukeMM
