East Los Angeles is one of the oldest neighborhoods in Los Angeles and the heart of Latino culture and community. East L.A. became a popular destination for immigrants in the 1990s to build and support their families. As a community member and a child of immigrants, I feel a connection with my neighborhood and a desire to tell the stories of the people and places who have been underrepresented through documentary photography.
