Episode Synopsis "Bruna Sollod: The Beauty of Immigration and Importance of Activism"

After a three month long road trip around the country, Bruna joins us on Girl Grit to reflect on her life and what led her to become a nationally known immigrant rights activist. She shares details of her journey from Brazil to Florida, her difficult decision to “come out of the shadows” and how Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) has impacted her life. On this episode, Bruna reminds us that immigration is beautiful and the best way we can support her is to get out and vote in November. https://www.nytimes.com/video/us/politics/100000005403642/what-dreamers-gained-from-daca-and-stand-to-lose.html
