For their college graduation photo, Selena Huapilla-Perez and Erica Alfaro, dressed in their cap and gown, posed in the fruit fields alongside their parents in tribute of their sacrifice as farmers.
"I always tell my parents, my sisters and brother that this belongs more to them than to me." Selena said, who graduated with a degree in Interdisciplinary Humanities from Michigan State University.
Erica, who now has a master's degree in Education from San Diego State University, shared in a Facebook post, "Their sacrifice to come to this country to give us a better future was worth it." #graduate #college #collegegraduation #gradphotos #latina #educatedlatina #latinos #americandream #immigrants #immigrantes #latin #farmworkers #sandiegostateuniversity #michiganstateuniversity
When Anna Ocegueda walks across the stage at @ucmerced’s 2019 commencement, it will not only be a powerful moment for her, but for her family, too — and for thousands who identify with her story.
.
This is a picture of Anna standing in the orange groves that her migrant parents know so well. She's wearing her graduation gown, flanked by her parents in their work garb, including the large bags they carry to collect fruit. The contrast is striking.
.
The UC grad's photo with her parents has gone viral. “I think it touched home for a lot of people.” Ocegueda said. “They felt moved by it."

Thanks to Elizabeth Arakelian at @ucmerced
