Common Ground shows D.C. what unites us
In early November, Stand Together brought Common Ground, its experiential pop-up installation, to the D.C. Wharf, attracting the attention of many in the nation’s capital, including Hill staffers, national media outlets, and even NFL Legend Shaun Alexander and pro-football colleague Dhani Jones.
Launched earlier this fall in Miami, the traveling exhibit aims at fostering much-needed conversations about immigration. Its key message highlights the simple fact that there is more that unites us than divides us—even when it comes to contentious immigration issues.
The pop-up features nine doors that, when opened, offered attendees various videos aimed at sparking conversations about immigration.
The exhibit will make an additional 10 stops in 2020.
