我不知道他会不会陷害我，
00:43
but I knew I wanted to tell his story.
11
31309
2176
但我知道我想讲述他的故事。
00:46
He asked me, "What will you do
12
34087
2564
他问我，“你会怎么做，
00:48
if one of these pollitos, or migrants,
slips into the water and can't swim?

At that moment, Pedro wasn't a cartoonish
TV version of a human smuggler.

警察不断地骚扰他们，
03:35

83
264252

她组织了小规模的抗议、静坐等活动。
04:41
She paid a high price for her activism,
84
269395
3341
她为自己的激进付出了高昂的代价，
04:44
because the day-labor agencies like Ron's
85
272760
2801
因为像Ron's这样的日工中介
04:47
blackballed her
and refused to give her work.

所以为了生存，
04:52
she started selling elotes,

05:27
So many people in her family

99
315244
4016
她家庭中的很多人
向我敞开了他们的内心世界
向我敞开了他们的内心世界
05:31
and shared their stories.
100
319284

并且分享了他们的故事。
05:33
Families are the heart and lifeblood
of the migrant trail.
of the migrant trail.
101
321577
4627
家庭是移民之路的心脏和命脉。
05:38
When these families migrate,
102

2031
当这些家庭迁移时，
05:40
they change and transform societies.
103
328879
2968

05:44
It's rare to be able
to access so intimately

332300
3103
能够如此亲密地接触到那些人
05:47
the intimate and day-to-day lives
105
335427
2417
的日常生活实属罕见
05:49
of people who, by necessity,
are closed to outsiders.
are closed to outsiders.
106
337868
3208
因为他们必须与外界隔离。
05:53
At the time,
107
341622
1150
那时，
05:54
Lupe's family lived in the insular world
of the Back of the Yards,
of the Back of the Yards,
108
342796
3940
卢佩一家住在后院里
这个与世隔绝的世界，
这个与世隔绝的世界，
05:58
a tight-knit Chicago neighborhood,
109
346760
2785
这是一个关系密切的芝加哥社区，
06:01
which for more than 100 years
had been a portal of entry
had been a portal of entry
110
349569
3339
100多年来，它一直是
06:04
for recent immigrants --
111
352932
1467
新移民的入口——
06:07
first, from Europe, like my family,
112
355371
1766
首先，来自欧洲的移民，
比如我的家庭，

2424
最近，则来自拉丁美洲，
06:11
Their world was largely hidden from view.
114
359609
2733
他们的世界很大程度上是
隐藏在人们的视线之外。

06:14
And they call the larger,
white world outside the neighborhood

115
362775
3324
他们把社区外更大的白人世界称为
06:18
"Gringolandia."
116
366123
1150
"外国佬"
06:21
You know, like lots of generations
moving to the Back of the Yards,
moving to the Back of the Yards,
117
369252
3460
就像很多代搬到后院的家庭一样，
06:24
the family did the thankless hidden jobs
that most people didn't want to do:
that most people didn't want to do:
118

121
386037

这些剥削工资的低收入高体力活。
06:41
But on weekends, they celebrated together,

389718
2896
但在周末，他们共同庆祝，
06:44
with backyard barbecues
123
392638

在后院烧烤
06:47
and birthday celebrations,
124
395368
1866
和生日庆祝派对，
06:49
like most working families the world over.
125
397258
2319
就跟世界上大多数工薪阶层一样。
06:52
I became an honorary family member.
126
400315
2530
我成为了一名荣誉家庭成员。
06:55
My nickname was "Johnny Canales,"

07:00
I had access to the dominant culture,
128
408259
1889
我接触到了主流文化，
07:02
so I was part family photographer,

07:11
One of the most memorable
moments of this time

这段时间中一个最值得回忆的场景是
07:15
was photographing the birth
of Lupe's granddaughter, Elizabeth.
