People we are meeting with

I looked over our itinerary and am so excited about the organizations and people we are meeting with! They include parents of women who have been kidnapped and ultimately murdered. We are meeting with labor organizers and meeting with women who put their lives on the line every day in order to bring attention to the femicide that is occurring in Guatemala.

I feel honored to have this opportunity to travel abroad and be inspired by these women and organizations that recognize the injustices and oppression that are taking place. I look forward to coming back home and being able to engage in meaningful conversations and enlighten people with what I have learned. You know there are letters to our nations leaders in my future!

I love you all and thank you so much for making this trip possible. Thank you for your support and love and listening to me when I need it most!
