A review by christynhoover
The Undocumented Americans by Karla Cornejo Villavicencio

funny informative inspiring reflective sad tense medium-paced

4.5

Eye-opening visits with and interviews of working-class Latino/a  immigrants --"illegal" ones-- in the US. Plus there's autobiographical input of the author who grew up as an illegal immigrant (with her illegal-immigrant parents) in the US.  

I've never fully grasped the level of unrelenting stress and fear that the undocumented live with 24/7, year after year, in the US. Until I read this book.
