Dear America: Notes of an Undocumented Citizen Audiobook (Free)

Summary:

Pulitzer-Prize being successful journalist Jose Antonio Vargas, called “the most well-known undocumented immigrant in America,” tackles among the defining problems of our time in this explosive and deeply personal call to arms.

“This is not a reserve about the politics of immigration. This book–at it’s core–is not about immigration at all. This book is approximately homelessness, not really in a normal sense, however in the unsettled, unmoored mental state that undocumented immigrants like myself discover ourselves in. This publication is about lying and having to rest to get by; about moving as an American so that as a contributing citizen; about families, keeping them collectively, and having to make new types when you can’t. This publication is about continuously hiding from the federal government and, in the process, hiding from ourselves. This book is about what it means to not have got a home.

After 25 years of living illegally within a country that will not consider me one of its own, this book may be the nearest thing I must freedom.”

-Jose Antonio Vargas, from Dear America
