12 short films for The Marshall Project that give voice to some of the people who are  ensnared in the complicated system to become an American citizen. Despite controversies over border walls, separated families and the Muslim travel ban, immigrants are still striving for American citizenship. WE ARE WITNESSES: BECOMING AN AMERICAN tells their stories and the stories of those trying to help and hinder them.
