In 2021, the largest protest since the Cuban Revolution took place in Cuba. With food and medical supplies scarce and the tension between the government high, existing became an act for criminal penalty for citizens. Desperate, Cubans took to the waters to flee the inequity. Meanwhile, just across the same Caribbean Sea, the Haitian president was assassinated causing concerns for public safety in a nation torn between beliefs and questionable motives.

There. was. no. reprieve. for lands rich in history and culture yet distraught by politics.

This is that work shared with you in remembrance, in dedication, and in commemoration.
