Excerpt from the live performance I performed at The Mount on 8/26/18 Video still above from a short video by Amy Jenkins posted here. . . . . . . .

Sin Paredes: Storia #1

https://vimeo.com/211256612 Sin Paredes: Storia #1 Sin Paredes is a collaborative project created with the aim to give voice to the people who culturally and economically enrich our communities through their hard work, community engagement, and cultural contributions, yet who are not free to enjoy the same liberties as others because of their nationality, immigration status, gender, class, sexual orientation, or even just the color of their skin. Recognizing our shared humanity in the stories told in this series inspires us to take action towards building a better, more inclusive community where everyone is valued for their diverse perspectives and cultural contributions.
