Since October 1960 the United States has enforced an embargo against the people of Cuba as a means of creating political pressure designed to result in the ultimate removal of Fidel Castro from power. Related policies essentially have ignored the individuality of the people of Cuba. This project was inspired by the following quote from "Three Heroes" by Jose Marti: "In the world there must be a certain amount of honor and respect, just as there must be a certain amount of light." Summarily, this photographer traveled to every province in Cuba to capture approximately 4000 images reflecting the dignity of her people and to proffer they deserve to be treated with honor and respect, not as faceless pawns in an ideological struggle between two nations.

In direct contrast to developing treatment paradigms for confronting violent juvenile behaviors, I particuarly am interested in projects spotlighting unpretentious persons with gentle spirits and other persons who traditionally go unnoticed
