States. The film focuses on immigrants and the communities in which they
live in California, Texas, and Iowa. Stories and reflections from immigrants
and refugees are woven together with scenes of community life and a vibrant
musical score. Also included are perspectives from scholars, union and
community activists, local officials, displaced workers, and more.  "Echando
Raices" covers issues of labor organizing, scapegoating of and violence
