THE UNDOCUMENTED AMERICANS

Powerful, eye-opening, and important, this audiobook, narrated by the author, is a must-listen. Karla Villavicencio documents her travels across the country for the purpose of collecting the stories of undocumented immigrants. A DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) recipient herself, Villavicencio is honest, raw, and engaging as she recounts her own experiences and shares interviews with those she meets along the way. The stories span individuals' everyday lives and include many moments that have impacted this country and the undocumented community as a whole: 9/11; the Flint, Michigan, water crisis; the 2016 presidential election; and more. Those who listen to this work with an open mind and an open heart will undoubtedly be changed by the experience. K.S.M. © AudioFile 2020, Portland, Maine [Published: MAY 2020]
