Homelands: Four Friends, Two Countries, And The Fate Of The Great Mexican-American Migration

"Love in the Time of Zero Tolerance could have been an alternative title for prize-winning journalist Alfredo Corchado’s latest book about Mexican immigration to the U.S. over the past four decades. As timely as headlines driven by President Trump’s crackdown on immigrants, Homelands is a nuanced history lesson wrapped in Corchado’s personal prose about his home country Mexico and his adopted U.S. Homelands explores it all through the tale of four friends. Corchado’s love of country, culture and tequila makes the story of Mexican immigration to the U.S., with all its contradictions and imperfections, easy reading and a lasting lesson in migration history."
