OUR VOICE COUNTS<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

For the third time, I am returning to the Wood River Valley, thrilled to present my film,\u00a0Hailing C\u00e9sar, and engage with the community. From my first connection with Herbert Romero and Tammy Davis, in 2021, I knew their work was vital to this community, and I was excited to be a small part of it.<\/span><\/p>\n

I am honored to share\u00a0Hailing C\u00e9sar, a deeply personal film chronicling my journey to understand my grandfather C\u00e9sar Ch\u00e1vez\u2019s legacy and the ongoing fight for farmworkers\u2019 rights. Through these screenings and discussions, I hope to inspire dialogue about activism, social justice, and the power of storytelling.<\/span><\/p>\n

Audiences will experience the film and engage in discussions about its themes, my filmmaking journey, and how my grandfather\u2019s work still resonates today. These conversations are a chance to reflect on history, address current issues, and explore ways we can create change.<\/span><\/p>\n

From past events at The Community Library to visiting local schools, I\u2019ve met incredible people working to uplift Latino voices and highlight our contributions. I look forward to reconnecting and continuing these conversations.<\/span><\/p>\n

A special thank you to our sponsors for making these events possible: PROJECTOOLSUCCESS, H Property Service, Crisis Hotline, The Community Library, La Perrona, Serva Peruvian Restaurant, SC Hispanic Chamber, La Caba\u00f1ita, Burger Grill, El Sombrero Restaurant, Marc Longley, Shell Plowman, and the Blaine County School District.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sincerely,<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a1Si Se Puede!<\/span><\/p>\n

NUESTRA VOZ CUENTA<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

Por tercera vez, regreso al Valle del R\u00edo Wood, emocionada de presentar mi pel\u00edcula, \u201cHailing C\u00e9sar\u201d, y conectar con la comunidad. Desde mi primer contacto con Herbert Romero y Tammy Davis, en 2021, supe que su trabajo era vital para esta comunidad y me entusiasm\u00f3 ser una peque\u00f1a parte de ella.<\/p>\n

Es un honor para m\u00ed compartir \u201cHailing C\u00e9sar\u201d, una pel\u00edcula profundamente personal que narra mi camino para comprender el legado de mi abuelo, C\u00e9sar Ch\u00e1vez, y la lucha continua por los derechos de los trabajadores agr\u00edcolas. A trav\u00e9s de estas proyecciones y charlas, espero inspirar el di\u00e1logo sobre el activismo, la justicia social y el poder de la narraci\u00f3n.<\/p>\n

El p\u00fablico experimentar\u00e1 la pel\u00edcula y participar\u00e1 en debates sobre sus temas, mi trayectoria cinematogr\u00e1fica y c\u00f3mo la obra de mi abuelo sigue vigente hoy en d\u00eda. Estas conversaciones son una oportunidad para reflexionar sobre la historia, abordar problemas actuales y explorar maneras en que podemos generar un cambio.<\/p>\n

Desde eventos pasados \u200b\u200ben la Biblioteca Comunitaria hasta visitas a escuelas locales, he conocido a personas incre\u00edbles que trabajan para elevar las voces latinas y destacar nuestras contribuciones. Espero con ansias reconectarme y continuar estas conversaciones.<\/p>\n

Un agradecimiento especial a nuestros patrocinadores por hacer posibles estos eventos: PROJECTOOLSUCCESS, H Property Service, Crisis Hotline, The Community Library, La Perrona, Serva, Restaurante Peruano, C\u00e1mara Hispana de Carolina del Sur, La Caba\u00f1ita, Burger Grill, Restaurante El Sombrero, Marc Longley, Shell Plowman y el Distrito Escolar del Condado de Blaine.<\/p>\n

Atentamente,<\/p>\n
