Women are taking power in leadership and creating generations of young activists, mothers to daughters.
Like Zeltzyn Sanches who comes from a dancing mother and activist from Mexico. Her mother is an influence in participating in activities in her community. Zeltzyn grew up in the USA and is a DACA student. She was brought here when she was 6 years old. Most recently, Sanches was with her mother on a hunger strike to raise $3.5 billion for immigrants who were excluded from the government stimulus checks. These immigrants worked during the pandemic in the city of New York. Through this effort the team of activist were able to raise $2.1 billion. "...but we have a long way to go!", she said. Sanches believes she is able to contribute more by being a commissioner in her Westchester, NY municipality.
