Summary
Using ethnographic data from several immigrant farmworker communities in Florida, Schmidt unravels the embedded structural inequalities of U.S. society and the ideological discourses that mask them. This book is a timely and increasingly necessary look at one of the most invisible populations in the U.S., one that has been systematically ignored and continuously misrepresented
