The document is a photographic collection by Jennifer A. Rodriguez chronicling the journey of groups of migrating people forced to leave their homelands and travel to new places seeking freedom and opportunity. It discusses the hardships faced by those migrating from places with poverty and injustice in Latin America and other deprived countries who traveled north in search of a better life, despite some not being allowed in, because surviving the difficult journey was worth escaping their circumstances and building a new life, even if it was just something rather than nothing.
