locdbooktician 's review for:

The Undocumented Americans by Karla Cornejo Villavicencio

This is not a book that I will rate.
This is not a book to appease your guilt of not thinking about undocumented Americans.
This is not a book to give criticism to.

This is a book of truth-telling at its rawest point.
This is a book that considers the narratives of other people's stories
This is a book that gripples the author's fears, love, dreams, and hopes into one.
This is a book that reexamines kinship and advocacy.

Most of all, this book screams, "Dear undocumented Americans, specifically the children, I see you, I hear, and I will fight with you."

This book gives light and recognition to things I did not think of prior. This book calls out POC violence against other POCs. This book examines first responders as being Undocumented Americans. While shinning lights on access as it relates to undocumented Americans. I wish I could hand this book to everyone I know.
