First- and second-generation immigrants to the US from all around the
world collaborate with renowned photographer Wendy Ewald to create a
stunning, surprising catalog of their experiences from A to Z.
In a unique collaboration with photographer and educator Wendy Ewald,
eighteen immigrant teenagers create an alphabet defining their
experiences in pictures and words. Wendy helped the teenagers pose for
and design the photographs, interviewing them along the way about their
own journeys and perspectives.
America Border Culture Dreamer presents Wendy and the students'
poignant and powerful images and definitions along with their personal
stories of change, hardship, and hope. Created in a collaboration with
Al-Bustan Seeds of Culture, this book casts a new light on the crucial,
under-heard voices of teenage immigrants themselves, making a vital
contribution to the timely national conversation about immigration in
America.
