Building Bridges

The video "Building Bridges"  interviews two individuals who are included in the exhibit “Building Bridges - Portraits of Immigrants and Refugees.”

This traveling exhibit was developed by Family Diversity Projects to challenge damaging myths and stereotypes and includes photographs and text displays of interviews with people who have come to the United States as immigrants or refugees from all over the world.
