description: Underground America tells the stories of men and women who have come to the United States seeking a better life for their families only to be subjected to dehumanizing working conditions. Supporting myriad industries these workers form an essential part of our economy  often by working the least desirable jobs without the most basic legal protections. Underground America allows this largely ignored part of our country to finally share its experiences.
