Undocumented immigrants are often faceless and voiceless in mainstream media outlets. However, two young undocumented Latinos featured on Fusion last week, are examples of how powerful their voices can be on social media.

@Undocumedia, is an Instagram account, co-created by two Latinos, with a cultural point of view of undocumented people living in the United States. It offers memes, inspirational quotes and even legal tips, to those who may not have access to many resources.

Regardless of the recent political uncertainty, @Undocumedia is not slowing down. During the first 100 days of Trump’s presidency for example, the account grew from 100,000 followers to 186,000.
