A Cry for Freedom
A Cry for Freedom is a visual protest against the Trump regime’s violation of due process for the 238 men they disappeared to the CECOT mega-prison in El Salvador. When the administration announces that some people are not deserving of due process, there is no longer due process for any of us.

THE NATION
At the steps of the Statue of Liberty on Sunday, I organized more than 50 people to turn our grief into a collective demand: Free the 238 men unlawfully disappeared into CECOT.
Immigrants Are Essential

Immigrants are Essential bears witness to the lives of Fedelina, Mario, Moisés, Yimel, Juan, Ofelia and Guadalupe. Just seven out of tens of thousands of undocumented immigrants who were taken too soon by COVID pandemic. They gave up so much leaving their home countries and coming to a place that didn’t always welcome them. They fought so bravely to make a better future for their families.
Rosa's Miracle
In 2018, Rosa began a seemingly impossible journey with her four children. She joined over 7,000 people and walked from Honduras to the United States’ southern border. While she walked through sand storms, deserts, over freezing mountains and through raging rivers the world watched in rapt attention with their mouths agape.
Rosa’s Miracle is a retelling of her journey to the United States told through spectacularly beautiful images steeped in dignity and celebration.
