Family Torn Apart


Katrina Guzman Sanchez is one of many whose protests have been heard outside the National Cattle Congress Grounds in Waterloo, Iowa. Katrina's husband, Eugenio, was deported back to Mexico in March. After 7 years of working in the United States, Eugenio was forced to leave his wife, Katrina, and their 1 year old child, Francisco, behind. Katrina and Francisco plan to move to Mexico in September to reunite their family.

your pictures are AMAZING, Dawn. All of them.
Katrina, I believe, was a student of mine at Expo. She was pregnant when she was my student, and got married after the baby was born.
Very, very cool stuff, Dawn.

Thank you for your VERY kind words, Maria. :-) It's a small world, isn't it?
