加州大学伯克利分校11月5日免费讲座：UCLA历史学家Kelly Lytle Hernandez回溯美国两百年移民管控史，无需门票
位于加州阿拉米达县伯克利市的加州大学伯克利分校（University of California, Berkeley）将于 11 月 5 日（周四）下午 4 时在校园 Sutardja Dai Hall 的 Banatao Auditorium 举办免费公开讲座：加州大学洛杉矶分校（UCLA）历史学家 Kelly Lytle Hernandez 主讲《设计使然的种族主义：美国移民管控两百年》（Racist By Design – Two Centuries of U.S. Immigration Control），属 Hitchcock Grant 讲座。本讲座隶属的伯克利研究生讲座（Berkeley Graduate Lectures）由八个捐赠讲席组成，1904 年至今持续邀请各领域杰出学者到伯克利演讲；该系列全部讲座向公众开放、免费入场、无需门票，讲座录像之后会在网上与 UCTV 上线。
在这场讲座中，Hernandez 将梳理美国移民管控的两个世纪：从联邦政府最早的入境限制、边境巡逻队（Border Patrol）的建立，一路讲到今天的拘留与递解体系，剖析这套体系是为谁设计、又意在管控谁。她的研究以「从执法档案里打捞普通人的故事」著称：《Migra!》（2010）重建了边境巡逻队在美国与墨西哥边境地区的起源，《City of Inmates》（2017）追溯洛杉矶自 1771 年至 1965 年的监禁史。11 月 5 日这场讲座，将把她多年的研究收束成一条完整的线索：移民管控如何一步步成为美国国家治理的核心机制之一。对关注排华法案、天使岛移民站与今日移民执法的华人读者，这是一场难得的系统梳理。
Kelly Lytle Hernandez 是 UCLA 历史系 Thomas E. Lifka 讲席教授，2019 年获得麦克阿瑟基金会奖金（俗称「天才奖」），表彰其揭示美国移民执法与监禁体系历史的研究。参加方式很简单：无需报名、无需门票，11 月 5 日下午 4 时前到 Banatao Auditorium 入场即可。
UC Berkeley Hosts Free Public Lecture on Nov. 5: UCLA Historian Kelly Lytle Hernandez on Two Centuries of U.S. Immigration Control
The University of California, Berkeley, in the city of Berkeley, Alameda County, California, will host a free public lecture on Thursday, November 5, 2026, at 4:00 p.m. in Banatao Auditorium, Sutardja Dai Hall, on the UC Berkeley campus. UCLA historian Kelly Lytle Hernandez will deliver the Hitchcock Grant Lecture, titled "Racist By Design – Two Centuries of U.S. Immigration Control." The talk is part of the Berkeley Graduate Lectures, a group of eight endowed lectureships that have brought distinguished visitors to Berkeley since 1904. All Berkeley Graduate Lectures are open to the public and admission is free; no tickets are required. Recordings of the lectures are also made available online and on UCTV.
In this lecture, Hernandez traces two centuries of U.S. immigration control — from the earliest federal restrictions through the creation of the Border Patrol to the modern detention and deportation system — and examines how the system was designed and whom it was designed to control. Her research is well known for recovering the human stories inside enforcement archives: her book "Migra!: A History of the U.S. Border Patrol" (2010) reconstructed the Patrol's origins in the U.S.-Mexico borderlands, and "City of Inmates: Conquest, Rebellion, and the Rise of Human Caging in Los Angeles, 1771–1965" (2017) traced Los Angeles's long history of incarceration. The November 5 lecture draws this work together into a single account of how immigration control became a central institution of American governance.
Kelly Lytle Hernandez holds the Thomas E. Lifka Endowed Chair in History at the University of California, Los Angeles, where she also directs the Ralph J. Bunche Center for African American Studies' Million Dollar Hoods research project. In 2019 she received a MacArthur Foundation Fellowship, widely known as the "genius grant," for her work revealing the history of the U.S. immigration enforcement and carceral systems. No registration is needed for the Berkeley lecture; attendees may simply come to Banatao Auditorium before the 4 p.m. start.
