Remember America like it used to be family, faith, community, hard work, respect for your elders, respect for yourself. Go to work in the morning, no complaints. People built things, fixed things, took pride in their craft. Friends, family, neighbors... one and the same. Backyard barbeques on Saturday, church on Sunday, back to work on Monday. And when you had a dream, you'd chase it. The thing about these immigrants coming into our country today, well, that's their America too. Maybe the good old days are back... Welcome.

CNN’s Nick Paton Walsh, travels with a group of migrants as they make the arduous trek on foot through Central and South America. The journey through the Darien Gap is a perilous jungle crossing between Colombia and Panama that many migrants must face as they head north to seek asylum in the United States. Over five harrowing days, Paton Walsh hikes the full 66-mile roadless route, documenting the heroism of everyday people, milked for cash by drug cartels and unwanted by any country, as they battle the dense rainforest in search of a better life.
