Conditional Citizens By Laila Lalami book pdf download from here for free. “Conditional Citizens: On Belonging in America” is an insightful memoir by Laila Lalami. The book traces Lalami’s transition from a Moroccan immigrant to a U.S. citizen. It serves as a springboard for her examination of the rights, freedoms, and protections that are typically associated with American citizenship.

The book underscores how factors such as national origin, race, and gender, which once defined the contours of Americanness, continue to cast their shadows today. Lalami posits that conditional citizens are those whom America welcomes with one hand and pushes away with the other. The book skillfully intertwines Lalami’s personal experiences with broader explorations of the status of nonwhites in America.
