June is Immigrant Heritage Month, a time to celebrate the diversity and shared American heritage of immigrants throughout time.

How have immigrants shaped our country today? In a groundbreaking new book, "One Quarter of the Nation: Immigration and the Transformation of America", sociologist Nancy Foner documents the impacts of immigration in the last half-century, from the economy and politics to cities and rural communities, as well as ideas about race and the nature of American culture.

Presenter: Nancy Foner is Distinguished Professor of Sociology at Hunter College and the Graduate Center of the City University of New York. She has written extensively about immigration, and is the author of over a dozen books, including From "Ellis Island to JFK" and "In a New Land". Among her many honors, she is an elected member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.
