About this compilation
“Our Stories of Migration: Saliendo Adelante” is a collection of stories written by English Language Learners (ELL) from Ecorse Community High School. This compilation emerged from a series of bilingual workshops, which Emmanuel Orozco Castellanos (BA; minor, Translation Studies ‘22) facilitated and designed for his Translation Studies capstone project. Co-translated into English and Spanish by Emmanuel and the students themselves, these migration stories depict the hurdles and hopes of moving to the United States. On each page, students remind us of the courage it takes to start over. Their narratives are, above all, a testament to migrant resilience.
“May these stories help us salir adelante by collectively dreaming a more just, welcoming, free world.”
