Since 2014 she has made several trips to the Texas-Mexico border during the time of waves of asylum-seeking families and unaccompanied minors, the initiation of the “metering” and the Migrant Protection Protocol (“Remain in Mexico”) policies of the U.S. government, and most recently at the point of the recent wind-down of MPP. She has also traveled extensively to migrant shelters throughout Mexico and the Northern Triangle of Central America to interview Central American women and LGBTQI+ migrants and asylum seekers.
