Review of 'Where We Come From' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
In the news, we see reports on various aspects of immigration, particularly in terms of human suffering or politicians seeking to score political points. Yet what immigration and the southern border of the United States looks like to regular Hispanic Americans seems to be inadequately explored in the national conversation.
This books helps explore this dynamic through the eyes of a woman in Brownsville, TX, her godson and various other relatives. I strongly recommend this book to anyone seeking a more nuanced understanding of issues around immigration in the United States
