This week, we’re visiting J. Cole fan, immigration reform advocate and self-described ‘nonprofit visionary’ Alix, and she tells us all about: 🔵 From Sinaloa, Mexico, Alix is a recent immigrant to the US, having lived in Georgia, and now California, and balances her time between being a nanny, and doing human rights work. 🔴 When Alix’s father passed away, she could no longer focus in school, lost her scholarship. fell into a depression, and made the decision to move to the US to be able to cope with her loss. ⚫️ She talks to me about having obtained a visa at 13 years old - stating that although she doesn’t understand the visa process, she is living through what it means to have overstayed your visa. 🔵 Alix credits her fashion choices to her overall creativity, whether it’s been her clothes, her work in social good, and connecting with people in general. 🔴 Her faith is her #1 priority: she considers her Christian faith as her ‘base’, saying its “so easy to combine theology and human rights.” ⚫️ She credits her work with Undocumedia for having an important impact in her life, and finds strength from the belief Ivan Ceja has shown in her story and her potential. 🔵  She talks about being in DC with 8,000 other people fighting for immigration reform, and finding inspiration amongst community. 🔴 Alix is hopeful for the Clean DREAM Act one day, and continues to be positive because of her support system, regardless of what happens in the future. ⚫️ “You have a community of people who love you - we’re going to defend like it’s nobody’s business.”
