A panel of professors looks at the history of the 14th amendment and its grant of birthright citizenship, and how that has affected different ethnic groups, including Native Americans, and immigrant groups such as Asians & Mexicans. The panelists also talk about state and federal efforts over the years to regulate birthright citizenship, and touch on recent proposals to amend the Constitution’s Citizenship Clause.
