Campoamor transforms the anecdotal into the political, the personal into the collective, reminding us that the Migration not only crosses geographies, but also skin tones, affections, and ways of being Understanding life. This work is a one-way emotional map and return, an act of remembrance and endurance, a song to the women who remake their world in plural
