You place your border but I will still chase my dreams.
You only see one color I will still chase my dreams.
You say I do not belong here I still chase my dreams.
We work until the blood, sweat and tears have been the fertile for you grapes, vines suffocating me, I still chase my dreams.
American Dream. 2015
Writing a mission statement for Girls Just Wanna Load Trucks, and the inception of our organization did not spawn out of thin air. For me, this comes from a deeply personal and political place. Because, for folks like myself the many cultures I come from there has never been an opportunity to be apolitical or separate political from embodied life.
Every day I went to school I saw the barbed wire and border — staring right back at me. I am honored to come from a family that always encouraged me to go farther not for myself, but for the collective. To stand tall.
I have always dreamt of tearing down walls, literally and figuratively. I want us all to be free.
MashAllah. Alhamdulillah.
este domingo tuve el gran gran placer a trabajar a lado de @amazonaselectricas por la primera vez en la Ciudad de México. Fue una nueva experiencia para mí, y también trabajar con un grupo de mujeres como las Amazonas que ya llevo años escuchando de ellas. Es la primera vez que trabajo con tantas mujeres en un equipo de grip y electric. Gracias por recibirme con tanto cariño y apoyo. Nunca voy a olvidar ese día. ❤️🇲🇽
