A Personal Testimony Of The Migrant Caravan
Caravans of migrants have been organized for over a decade now. However, it wasn't until 2014 that people came together and organized a migrant caravan from the border of Guatemala and Mexico to the U.S.-Mexico border. Besides banding together to migrate in a much safer way, these caravans are mostly driven by a common theme or goal, whether as assistance to those affected by the earthquakes in Oaxaca and Mexico City or in solidarity with those already traversing the country abroad freight trains in search of a new life in the U.S. or Mexico.
The current caravan, the Refugee Caravan" Diversity without Borders, the second trans-gay-migrant caravan which celebrates inclusivity and diversity among migrants. At the time of writing, the group had already reached over 1,500 travelers.
