This past January I look a course in Chiapas, Mexico, studying civic organizing and solidarity. It was a truly eye opening experience. Being an art student, I went over there with the intent that I would take some great pictures but I left with much more than that. My perspective of the world and my place in it has forever been alter. There were girls over there, the same age as me that had accomplished so much more than I had. They are also taking charge and making a differnce in their communities. I came back with some great picture but now they hold much more meaning to me.
