Description

Braceros, or Mexican farm workers, are shown in this undated photo in California. From 1942 until 1964, about 4.5 million Mexicans were brought in to temporarily work in U.S. farm fields. The braceros, now in their 70s, 80s and 90s, are still fighting to recover the the money that was deducted from their wages and promised by Mexico's government.
