The Right To Migrate

I started this book with an 8-page draft in 1992 and wrote most of it in 1993. An 85-page soft-bound version was sold in 1996 for $20. The Right To Migrate was posted for free on AOL Hometown beginning in 1999 and updated to the 2002 final 110-page version. After AOL Hometown was shut down in 2008 the book was posted on my Verizon account, but search engines never found it. Since 2014 the book has been available on paulvanraden.com web site.

FOREWORD

Forward is the way that most of us travel, but other people may tell us to stop and go backward if we reach their border. All of us will have more places to go and more rights if we make immigration legal and border police illegal. As Americans, or Europeans, or Australians, or people, we value our rights. The right to migrate, which most people do not have, may have the highest value. This book explains why people should have the right to move forward.

I wrote this book in easy English. You only need to know a few hard words such as immigration. If we have a right to migrate, that means that each of us could find a new home on any side of any border. When you find the right place for you, you and your neighbors should try to live in peace. You also have a right to sit where you are and read this book. You can begin in any chapter and then go to any other chapter. In this book, you have a right to migrate.
