Hii Friend, Happy Latinx Heritage month! 🥳
As a first-gen Chicana-Dominicana, I am celebrating my Latinx heritage by creating poetry and community art about my immigrant culture. 💗 For example, in our Zine ‘Immigrant Made’, I wrote 3 poems about what a world without borders would look like, how special us immigrants are by nature of being immigrants, and how powerful our stories are.
Will you join me in celebrating Latinx heritage month by taking a look at the art and immigrant stories within our Zine? 🖼 (You can even receive a FREE physical copy in the mail! 📬) Â
✨ VIEW LATINX ART ✨
To be able to write and share these poems with you mean the world to me, friend. 🥺 The poems show that we know what’s best for us, by honoring what came before us and drawing inspiration from our ancestors in the fight for immigrant and racial justice.
With that, I hope you’ll take a moment this month to read my poems and browse through the magic that is our Zine. 💗 Through our art and writing, we want to remind our communities this Latinx Heritage Month that our stories and cultures are power!
With love,
Ayling and the team at UWD
