Mi Gente photographs
Description:
Mi Gente was established in 1992 to foster a strong Latinx community at Duke and address the needs of Latinx students as shown through these two photographs. This group photograph of Mi Gente’s first office space in 2014 depicts the trajectory of the group’s student activism, as demands for a more visible space for Latinx groups eventually led to the establishment of Mi Gente’s current identity space La Casa in 2016. The current space works toward providing an inclusive environment for all students.
