SOBRE EL PROYECTO

One Arizona presenta Resiliencia en el Desierto, una crónica del poder de la comunidad que ha crecido desde hace 10 años cuando la SB1070 fue promulgada ley.

Esta exhibición en línea es una línea de tiempo y una recolección de historia, destacando la desobediencia civil, la historia y la organización que NOSOTROS logramos que sucediera llevándonos hasta el 2020. One Arizona ha archivado fotografías, testimonios en video, audio, prensa y opiniones de los líderes en la lucha en contra de la SB1070 y la cultura del miedo en Arizona. Esta exhibición de la participación comunitaria amplifica nuestras victorias frente a la discriminación.

Esta no es una celebración de una ley mala, es un tributo a la sangre, al sudor y a las lágrimas que se derramaron para retomar nuestro estado de las manos del odio. Juntos, estamos dándole vuelta a la página y elevando el poder político de la comunidad latina de Arizona.

SOBRE EL PROYECTO

One Arizona trabaja para mejorar las vidas de los arizonenses, especialmente las personas de color y los jóvenes, al construir una cultura de participación cívica.

One Arizona se formó en 2010 como respuesta directa a la creciente privación de derechos de los votantes y al ataque contra nuestra comunidad latina en forma de SB1070. Desde entonces, One Arizona ha crecido hasta incluir más de 20 organizaciones que representan a diversas comunidades en todo Arizona, trabajando codo a codo para construir una cultura de compromiso cívico y participación democrática y registrando a 190,000 personas para votar solo en 2018. Al trabajar juntos, hemos creado un cambio profundo y duradero en el estado que llamamos hogar.

Profundas graciás a nuestros compañeros en la lucha
