"I cannot send a belt to a cousin because a cousin is not family. I am very upset because they pick who is my family and who is not. My family is my family! Nobody has the right to tell me who is my family and who is not." - Roberto, a 66-year old Cuban-American living in Florida.

Roberto

Roberto, 66, Radio Journalist in Miami, FL from the exhibit "Love, Loss & Longing"

Roberto is offended at the thought of having to ask permission to visit his own county. He also objects to the government’s deciding who is his family. ”I cannot send a belt to a cousin because a cousin is not family… I am very upset because they pick who is my family and who is not. My family is my family! Nobody has the right to tell me who is my family and who is not.”
