看不见的美国（译文纪实）
(us) Jenny Laskas
More than 150 meters underground, Jenny Laskas asked a miner named Smitty: "Do you find it strange that people know so little about you?" He replied: "I think they may not know how this country works." "Invisible America" is about such a group of people who work hard every day to keep our lives running, but we never take them to heart. The unseen world is diverse: mining companies in Ohio, oil rigs in Alaska, migrant labor camps in Maine, air traffic control centers at LaGuardia, beef cattle ranches in Texas, landfills in California, long-haul truckers in Iowa, gun shops in Arizona, and Cincinnati Bengals cheerleaders. Cheerleader? Yes, they also represent the America you can't see.
