Description
Human rights organizations gathered at the U.S.- Mexico border to remember a woman who died Wednesday. It’s believed she was being held with other asylum seekers at an open-air detention site, west of the San Ysidro Port of Entry between the border barriers.
“We want to recognize that it was a human being, with their own story with their own dreams wishes,” American Friends Service Committee Director, Pedro Rios said.
As a way for the community to pay their respects, an altar was put together along the border wall. A sign at the altar reads ‘No seras olvidada,’ you will not be forgotten, a message dedicated to remember the 29-year-old.
