9: An artist reports at the border Our House

Paola Mendoza believes in the power of art to move people to a place of action. That belief led her to becoming artistic director of the Women’s March. And this past November, it took her to Mexico to tell true stories from the immigrants and refugees in the caravan headed to the US.

You can see Paola's stories from the caravan on Instagram: instagram.com/paolamendoza. Find her on Twitter at twitter.com/paolamendoza
