Photographer Eunique Jones Gibson launched a campaign called Por Ellos, Si Podemos to send a positive message to kids by highlighting influential Latinos in history.
“Most of the time when I hear about Latinos on television or even online, they’re negative stories…but very few about the positive impact and contributions that Latinos have had,” Gibson tells Mashable. By turning her camera on these well-known Latino leaders, Gibson hopes to send a positive message to counter the dozens of negative ones children consume on a daily basis.
Here’s a few of the photos she took showing children posing as influential Latino leaders.
