“Nada somos sí solos caminamos, todo seremos si nuestros pasos caminan junto a otros pasos dignos.”

“We are nothing walking alone; we become everything walking alongside dignified steps.”
– El Comité Clandestino (1994)

Join us for a community reading of the new publication (In)visibility, featuring critical essays and artworks by undoc+ artists exploring undocumentedness, migration, and solidarity. This collective event amplifies marginalized voices through storytelling, fostering empathy and connection.

The editor of this volume is a formerly undocumented, first-generation, transnational, Japanese-Mexican immigrant and UCLA doctoral candidate. (In)visibility foregrounds the aesthetic achievements of undoc+ authors and scholars while centering care and protection for participants. This reading is part of a broader commitment to foster community connection through art and storytelling.

This program is in partnership with Undoc+ Collective
