The activist video project, "We Say No," is a participatory concept in which
anyone who wishes may voice their opinion on the 700 mile long proposed
border fence between the United States and Mexico. Attendees are
encouraged to step into a video booth and have their opinions recorded
about the proposed dividing fence. The two-minute statements from this
project will be used in a documentary made in collaboration with The Ministry
of Culture, Imix Books and Patricia Cunliffe. To learn more, please visit: http://
