Feminists Fighting for Migrant Families: Angry Tias and Abuelas of the Rio Grande Valley
The Angry Tias and Abuelas of the Rio Grande Valley ( / angrytiasandabuelas ) formed in response to the family separation crisis of 2018, and they continue to this day supporting migrants with deliveries of material assistance, travel help at the McAllen bus terminal, and other services as needed. We were able to accompany one of the Tias, Elisa Filippone, as she made her near-daily trip from Brownsville, Texas into Mexico to deliver supplies to migrants waiting to request asylum in the United States. Their ability to match donations with need, focus on women and families, and scrupulous use of funds made this grassroots group stand out.

We created this video as part of our #BorderStories project to raise awareness about issues at the US-Mexico Border and to support organizations working to assist migrants and border communities.
Thanks to Elisa Filippone, Therese Gallego, Susan Law, and all the Angry Tias and Abuelas for help in making this video.
