I share my Friday charcoal/pencil drawing with you with a pain in my heart

He deserved better

SAY HIS NAME:

FELIPE GOMEZ ALONZO

It hurts me to draw this beautiful face, but this sweet boy needs to be remembered, forever.

He was 8, my daughter turns 8 next month.#SayHisName pic.twitter.com/tsITlVSitt

Her name was Jakelin Caal Maquín.
She was 7 years old.
She died in US Border Patrol custody.

People will say not to politicize her tragic death. People will say it was her parents' fault.

I say if we just forget her, then she died in vain. #SayHerNamehttps://t.co/c2jQKUCfGn
