[LWVNM Action] Cindy Nava, UNM Commencement 2022

[Meredith Machen]

I invite you to hear a former proud member of the League of Women Voters of
New Mexico share her immigrant experience and message. I think about the
myriad talents of Dreamers we are wasting while Congress fails to pass any
version of the Dream Act yet again-10 years and counting.

Please watch Cindy Nava deliver the keynote address at the UNM commencement
and learn from her remarkable, inspirational journey as a former
undocumented student moving through volunteering and leadership experiences
as a former DACA to her current Presidential appointment as a senior policy
advisor to HUD. Segment runs from 51 minutes to 1:21 in the YouTube
streaming link below.

As her former teacher and mentor at Santa Fe Community College and her
friend and colleague, I believe that you will find her half-hour speech
well worth your time.   Cindy developed the courage to overcome fear and
prejudice and self-doubts to become a positive interrupter and respected
role model and public servant.
