Name:   Nicolas Rodriquez SIPA MPA 2013 Dancing at Proyecto This picture was taken at the 2009 Womens Conference of Proyecto Pastoral, a community-based organization in the Boyle Heights-area of Los Angeles. I have had a change to work with the organization since moving to LA and the Womens Conference is my favorite event to volunteer at.   Pictured here, La Santa Cecilia, a local band performs during a lunch break for participants. Looking Towards Skid Row I took this picture of a few friends as they stood on the roof of a former low-income housing hotel which is located on the edge of the Bank District in Downtown LA, next to Skid Row.     This area, recently gentrified has put a lot of pressure on the homeless Angelenos in the area, who used to rely on the old apartments and hotels of Downtown LA for shelter. Visiting Family My dad and I visited a family cemetery in Progreso, TX.   This plot was in my mothers family dating from the Mid-19th Century and is adjacent to a large sugarcane field.   This area lies on the edge of a new border fence being constructed along the border with Tamaulipas, MX. My name is Juan Manuel Rodilla Navarro (SPAIN) and I am an incoming MIA student. 2006 Ecuador. San Antonio del Tio Cajas.
