Us (…) Them is a short documentary about my experience with the phenomenon of de facto segregation that was born out of the ethnic segregation imposed by the social cliques within the schools of Alamosa, Colorado.
In an effort to not only spread awareness about de facto segregation but also encourage others to reflect on their past environments, I hope you take the time to watch the film in its entirety. Thank you.
Stand Up, Fight Back is a short observational documentary about a student protest that was held at the University of Colorado Boulder on February 6, 2025.
For those of you curious about the reason for censoring the faces of the participants in this peaceful protest, it is to protect them from the consequences of practicing their First Amendment rights. Thank you.
