Abstract | This essay documents the work of 67 Suenos, a youth-led collective based in Oakland, California. The group is committed to bringing to light the stories of the 67 percent of undocumented youth and young adults who would not qualify for the DREAM Act and who are in many ways left out of the dominant narrative around immigration reform. The author examines the use of cultural storytelling, through video testimonio and murals, as an important source of healing and movement building. Through their process of reflection, art and action, 67 Suenos provides a powerful lesson on who has the right to be heard and a reminder that all youth have dreams worth pursing. The author pays special tribute to 67 Suenos by including the voices of its members throughout the essay. (As Provided). |
