[URBANTH-L]References Request--MX-US Migration

[Ben Chappell]

I second many of the suggestions, especially Crossing Over and Farmingville.
One that I have not read, but would be interested to see this list respond
to, is Luis Alberto Urrea's The Devil's Highway. A couple of other
documentaries that are really good include Heather Courtney's Letters from
the Other Side (http://www.sidestreetfilms.com/) and Natalia Almada's Al
Otro Lado (http://www.altamurafilms.com/). For teaching material, it can be
interesting to poke around in the "interactive documentary" 9500 Liberty (
youtube.com/9500liberty).
Good luck!
