The 6-year-old heard in the heartbreaking border facility audiotape is still separated from her mother who is 1,000 miles away. https://t.co/TirQsMUEfQ

Despicable. Former ICE Director says some migrant family separations are permanent. This policy is creating permanent damage. History will not look kindly at this administration. https://t.co/Xm2wzkLPQv #KeepFamiliesTogether

.@MyNameIsDiwa Co-writer/Co-director Aina Dumlao: I think it would be good if someone asks, "Why did you make this film?” @danceswithfilms #WeAreMovingStories https://t.co/q6zoHmyRd1

‘Diwa challenges its audience to look through the debate and find the people at its heart, the victims lost to statistics, and lives forever left unfulfilled.’ - David Duprey, journalist and critic.

Blanca was raped and threatened with death and fled Honduras to survive. After this week's decision by the Trump administration to stop granting domestic violence survivors asylum, she's losing hope. https://t.co/XPdT1bmhBb

That one time I took a shower and put on makeup (and actually liked how I look). Thanks for giving me a reason to get out of the house @danceswithfilms! Oh, and thank you for welcoming @MyNameIsDiwa with open arms. #dwf21 #slaysian #RepresentationMatters
