This is a new genre that some of the students in PO 2302 Civic Engagement & Social Action decided to attempt above and beyond their actual assignment to help our class design ways to disseminate their research and presentations beyond our small group. To qualify to publish, students had to further edit their work and make the presentation more engaging by following a story arc and by removing most text and adding transition and morphing effects wherever possible. I am grateful to my entire class this Fall 2022 for taking on this challenge and for working above and beyond their course requirements to help us experiment with a new format for publishing on the StMU Research Scholars website Project coordinated by Dr Brad Whitener.

Very strong piece that highlights the influence of women in politics, more so here in Texas. Love the format as well, and enjoyed the images going hand in hand with the audio!

Hello! Congratulations on a great publication! It is so powerful to hear stories about such strong women making a difference in politics. DACA is such an important program that has been in danger of being let go, so hearing her fight for this program is reassuring to say the least. I think in this publication, you have captured her story well and have inspired people to be active in their political communities. Great job!

Sarah, I really enjoyed your article about Erika Andiola, and congratulations on your nomination! It’s inspiring to hear about a fearless Latina woman who stands up for her convictions and empowers others to do the same. Learning about her struggles and how she overcame obstacles gives hope to all women to keep fighting and pressing forward. I also appreciated how you highlighted her efforts to make politics more accessible to the Hispanic community. Erika Andiola is a role model for current and future generations of women, and it’s great to see more women breaking through patriarchal barriers. Well done!

Congrats Sarah this is such a great video. I love that you chose a strong women in politics. It is so important for us to become more aware of these women and their accomplishments. She has such an inspiring story that she came here from Mexico under such difficult circumstances, and now she fights for those who were in the same position as her. Thank you for allowing us to take part in her story as it truly is one that is so inspiring.

Congrats Sarah on your nomination. I enjoyed learning about this fearless, female latina. It’s important, for not only latinas, but all women, to have a conviction and the courage to voice it. Hearing a story of struggles and overcoming obstacles can give others hope to keep up the good fight, to keep pressing forward and to believe good will come from that. Congrats again and well done.

This is really an amazing video. The video’s setup is excellent, in my opinion. It’s different now. The story being communicated is quite potent. Because it applies to both me and many of the people I know, I truly dig reading articles like this. We must continue to highlight pieces that are educational about women who have faced challenges but also overcame them to improve their communities. This is a really interesting video.

First of all congratulations on your nomination I really enjoyed listening to your PowerPoint. I think Erika Andiola is really making it accessible for Hispanics and is also a really hard-working and empowering woman, that the Hispanic Community can see as a figure of a role model for future generations and even current generations. Great to see that there are women out there opening the path for young women and women are trying to break out of the patriarchal way of thinking wonderful article.
