"I Never Knew They Existed": The Invisible Haitian Migrant Worker.
Craige, Tito
Migration World, v15 n2 p17-21 1987
Discusses United States' neglect of the problems of Haitian boat people in adjusting to American social and economic life. Presents findings of a field study of Haitians in a Federal health clinic and three labor camps. Despite hard work, Haitians's social mobility is limited by their indebtedness to the company store, and their lack of contact with surrounding communities. (KH)
