Christian Kock and Lisa S. Villadsen (University Park: Pennsylvania State University Press, 2012), 46. In this study, I use Keith and Cossart’s definition of rhetorical citizenship: “Rhetorical citizenship is that set of communicative and deliberative practices that in a particular culture and political system allow citizens to enact and embody their citizenship” (46).

See Louis DeSipio and Rodolfo O. de la Garza, “A Nation of Immigrants: Continuing Dilemmas,” in Making Americans, Remaking America: Immigration and Immigrant Policy (Boulder: Westview Press, 1998), 4. When I refer to immigrants in this study, I mean people who move from one country and enter another, as DeSipio and de la Garza define the term.
