Poet/Speaker: Yosimar Reyes

Through Poetry, storytelling and Humor Yosimar Reyes brings us a fresh perspective on the lives of undocumented immigrants. In his presentation, Reyes explores the importance of undocumented immigrants being agents of their own stories. This presentation is engaging and insightful as it allows us to think of this community as more than two-dimensional but also as creators of their own futures.
