Southern Exposure. Causes and Consequences of Illegal Immigration

Description

Three years in the making, Southern Exposure tears down a curtain of lies, half-truths, and misinformation to scrutinize the many aspects of illegal immigration from Mexico to the United States. The result is a hard-hitting investigation that chronicles the backstories of drug cartels and human trafficking, the effects of demographic changes, the resurgence of contagious diseases, and the escalation of racism. Southern Exposure is unflinching in identifying the consequences of illegal immigration, sensitive to those who risk everything to make the border-crossing, and comprehensive in its analysis of the effects-both direct and indirect.
