Publisher's Note
The new immigrant experience chronicled in words and pictures.
The percentage of foreign-born people living in America today is almost as high as it was at the peak of the early twentieth century immigrations. But while previous waves of migrants settled in urban areas, today's migrants are spread across the country. Now, Emmy-award-winning journalist Rubén Martínez, along with celebrated photographer and longtime collaborator Joseph Rodríguez, have set out to capture and contextualize this multifaceted new immigrant experience.
In The New Americans, a companion book to the PBS documentary from the award-winning producers and director of Hoop Dreams, we experience the day-to-day lives of the immigrant families chronicled in the series: an Indian couple in the Silicon Valley; a Mexican native and a Vietnamese couple working in meatpacking plants in Kansas; a family of Nigerian refugees, including the sister of slain Ogoni activist Ken Saro-Wiwa; two top Los Angeles Dodgers prospects from the Dominican Republic; and a pair of Palestinian newlyweds carving out a life in Chicago.
Weaving personal stories together with stunning portraits from Rodríguez, The New Americans is a moving meditation on the experience of a new generation of immigrants.
