LATINX POWER

In the midst of a political climate hostile to immigrants in the United States, the Latino community flourishes in all fields and aspects of American society. This story, commissioned by National Geographic Magazine, aims to celebrate the diversity within this community. These photographs document their daily struggle to make themselves visible and to demand their rights in a country that has discriminated against them throughout their history.

On October 12th 2016, Javier Duarte abandoned his position of Governor of the Mexican State of Veracruz leaving the population in uncertainty.
Nowadays he is accused of many corruption charges and his whereabouts are unknown. The Republic’s Attorney general office offered a 15 million pesos reward to whoever provides useful information that will help his arrest.
This is a portrait of some of the people that live in Tlacotalpan, a town in the state that Duarte used to govern.

Here, in Rumihuaico, I can do both. Literally, right before my eyes, the countryside is transforming into cities and suburbs.
