Zero Tolerance Policy

Group members explored the issue of “Zero Tolerance” and how these guidelines have affected families attempting to cross the Mexico/USA border. The project highlights important issues such as family separation, white supremacy, deportation, and due process hearings. Read the group's narrative here and view the videos below. The group also created a crossword puzzle. You can play the game by viewing the prompts here and the puzzle here (after you've played, you can also check your answers).

In other words, we as a community must work together and be the servant leaders to our fellow neighbors. In a sense, this project itself is a conjunto. As a group, the four of us met together to think about our themes and topics related to Zero Tolerance, as well as the lives that are affected by this policy.
