From painful family separations at the border, to profits made off the exploitation of indigenous people's land, and corporate and commercial greed, “This Is Not America” is a blistering, heated rejection of U.S. imperialism and the country’s history of exploiting and erasing people from across Latin America and the Caribbean.
