The sewing workshop participants were primarily women from Central America who were unable to enter the United States due to MPP or Title 42. The workshop gave them the opportunity to earn income while waiting. Some of the participants have since been reunited with family members in the United States to await their immigration court hearings.

Desde entonces, algunos de los participantes se han reunido con familiares en los Estados Unidos para esperar sus audiencias en la corte de inmigración.

Together We Move Forward. Many people don’t know Ciudad Nueva even though it has been present for 15 years- people are more preoccupied with everyday life but never realize what is going on in their community and how we can help one another. I am hopeful that we can keep helping the community and for the community to help us to be united.

Juntos Seguimos Adelante. Mucha gente no conoce Ciudad Nueva a pesar de que ha estado presente durante 15 años, la gente está más preocupada por la vida cotidiana, pero nunca se dan cuenta de lo que está pasando en su comunidad y cómo podemos ayudarnos unos a otros. Tengo la esperanza de que podamos seguir ayudando a la comunidad y que la comunidad nos ayude a estar unidos.

I am not sure if racism will really ever end, but I do think we should acknowledge more that we are all human no matter color, and that it doesn’t matter.

No estoy seguro de si el racismo realmente terminará alguna vez, pero creo que deberíamos reconocer más que todos somos humanos sin importar el color, y que no importa.
