Curated by ACT

History's largest ongoing migration is occurring in China. One out every ten Chinese is leaving the rural countryside for one of China's major cities.

In this video from the Wide Angle film "The People's Court," meet some of the peasants who have been largely ignored by the nation that they are helping to rebuild. [3:10]
