The Beast: Riding the Rails and Dodging Narcos on the Migrant Trail by Óscar Martínez

5.0

Martinez is a journalist who walked, ate, slept, and rode alongside migrants making the long and dangerous journey from Central America, through Mexico, to attempt entry to the United States. It really helped me understand the situation many migrants are in -- and very worth reading. If interested, you may want to search for Martinez's videos online. I found this one particularly interesting: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hnuuXAq_MGU
