Discovering the power of words
Alejandra Alarcon has been journaling since she was eight years-old. Amidst experiences of abuse, writing was a constant, keeping her sane when she felt she couldn't communicate with anyone else. "I know how it feels to be unheard. But when I began to write, I learned I had the power to change this." She tells her story and describes how the power of words has shaped her identity, on Coachella Unincorporated.
