Title
Braceros walk along railroad tracks and pass a bracero's grave near the Monterrey Processing Center, Mexico.
Description
Braceros walk along railroad tracks to the Monterrey Processing Center, Mexico. They pass a bracero's grave on the left side of the track in front of a barbed wire fence. The men carry their belongings. A group of others come along from the other direction. On their long dusty trek toward a recruiting center at Monterrey, braceros approach the cross-topped grave of one of their number who died along the way.
