MIAMI
“We hold these truths to be self-evident…We’re them. They’re you. You’re me. We’re us: a handshake, a smile good morning on the bus, a door held open, a seat we give up on the subway. We tend restrooms or sell art, make huevos rancheros or herbed salmon, run for mayor or restock shelves, work a backhoe or write poems. We’re a poem in progress.”
— Richard Blanco, excerpt from Declaration of Interdependence
We launched AYLF’s first-ever cohort in Miami in 2023 with Fellows who hail from across the city, contributing rich perspectives and experiences.
