Immigration is one of the most politicized topics in the U.S. today.

While media channels primarily focus on the traumatic stories of those at the border, with dystopian detention camps and children separated from parents, less attention is given to the 11 million undocumented people already living in the country.

Written with tenderness and poignancy and named one of Time Magazine's 100 Best Books of The Year, The Undocumented Americans seeks to correct the narrative.

National Book Award finalist Karla Cornejo Villavicencio paints a moving picture of the injustice and discrimination faced by undocumented immigrants living in the U.S.

As the daughter of two undocumented immigrants, Villavicencio came to the U.S. from Ecuador as a young child and is now a Harvard graduate.

The Undocumented Americans features interviews with immigrants from New York to New Mexico, exploring the insurmountable challenges undocumented workers face trying to build better lives for their families.
