The Dream Fields of Florida: Mexican Farmworkers and the Myth of Belonging

by Ella Schmidt

Using ethnographic data from several immigrant farmworker communities in Florida, Schmidt unravels the embedded structural inequalities of U.S. society and the ideological discourses that mask them. This book is a timely and increasingly necessary look at one of the most invisible populations in the U.S., one that has been systematically ignored and continuously misrepresented.
