Event Description: Los Otros Dreamers is a community-published anthology of stories and photos about the experience of return and deportation to Mexico after having grown up in the United States. Twenty-six youth shared their stories in their own words with Dr. Jill Anderson, who then edited their stories into a collective testimonio about return. Nin Solis visited each participant and took photographs of their homes and neighborhoods, as well as a portrait of each returning “Dreamer.” In word and image, the book tells a story of the challenges, obstacles, injustices, triumphs, and potential of this bilingual, bicultural generation on the move.
The book is a combination of art, research and social justice written for a growing bilingual, bicultural audience.
Event is made possible with the support of the John Jay DREAMers, Lehman DREAM Team, BMCC DREAM Team, US-Mexico Foundation, and the Mexican Cultural Institute.
