Laz Ayala and Nick Alexander discuss Laz's Autobiography, Illegal: One Immigrant's Life Or Death Journey To The American Dream.
Laz describes why he decided to tell his story and turn it into a book about his life, which ultimately became the building blocks of his feature-length documentary also titled Illegal.
Throughout this discussion, Laz talks about how he is using his voice to advocate for changes to our Guest Worker program and eliminating our current system that perpetuates illegal employment and the exploitation of immigrant workers.
