Place: 

South College Commons

An exhibition of the Fotodiásporas project, which seeks to broaden our understanding of forced cross-border migration due to the Colombian armed conflict, the longest in the Americas. It does so through the eyes and voices of 15 Colombian men and women who were forced to leave the country and start a new life in the United States, one of the largest receiving countries for Colombian migrants. The project is based on the use of photo-voice, an action-research method that uses photographic and narrative composition as a form of community research and expression.
