All three groups marched in spite of the American president Donald Trump’s decision to close borders. Hope, even through uncertainty, led families not to give up.
This story, broadcasted by TV Brasil on Nov. 12th 2018, was one of the many edited in partnership with the American-based Brazilian reporter Leandra Felipe and the image department.
