I remember when Professor Corona told me about the Latino Migration Project and the Latino Arts for Humanity group. I was so excited for the opportunity to contribute to this project. I contacted Rosa and went to my first meeting. There was a nice group of people full of energy starting to work on this great Project. Professor Calvo was by that time a big help for the project too. She invites a lot of her students to collaborate in the project. Everybody were ready to interview people from the Hispanic community. There was a necessity to learn the basic of an interview and also the need of having the basic questions. We had a meeting and came up with these basic questions that were just the key to the door of many beautiful histories. Stories that connected one to the each other. I called them our stories del alma.
