Product Description
Part history, part political analysis, and part memoir, Mexifornia is an intensely personal work by a fifth-generation Californian who runs a farm in the Central Valley. Here he considers how the state and indeed the nation have been altered by America’s hemorrhaging borders and how our disordered immigration policies are perhaps most harmful to the Mexican immigrants who come seeking a better life. Mexifornia is both an emotionally generous look at the ambition and vigor of people who have made California strong and an indictment of the policies that got California into its present mess.
