Fronteras: Life After Deportation, Part II

Why do people from Mexico, Central America or anywhere in the world for that matter consider the idea of coming into the U.S. illegally?  They have a dream too but it's not the typical American Dream.  It's a dream of breaking out of the poverty and struggle they're used to in their home country.  We talk with reporter Peter O'Dowd with the Fronteras Newsdesk in Phoenix about a group of Guatemalans who have stories to share about their experiences coming into the U.S. and being deported.
