"Sergio Gonzalez has written an irresistibly intriguing and provocative book on the intersections of faith, politics, and immigration in Wisconsin. Strangers No Longer is a historically grounded and richly empirical book that speaks to the power of religion in the experiences of immigrants, refugees, and migrants. This is a must-read for all those who are working every day to build a better and more just world."--Felipe Hinojosa, author of Apostles of Change: Latino Radical Politics, Church Occupations, and the Fight to Save the Barrio
