The Faces of North Carolina is a video series campaign dedicated to highlighting the stories of immigrants and their families living across our state. At a time when anti-immigrant rhetoric is growing, this campaign seeks to humanize the individuals behind these harmful narratives and demonstrate the vital role immigrants play in the prosperity of North Carolina.

The series shares personal stories of immigrant farmworkers who are essential to our agricultural success, U.S.-born children navigating life in mixed-status families, and parents who have experienced the heartbreak of family separation due to immigration policies. These narratives reveal the resilience and humanity of immigrant communities. The final video highlights the power of activism, showing how people across the state are coming together to fight for justice, safety, and inclusion. Whether in the streets, at the polls, or in public forums, North Carolinians are uniting to reject fear-mongering and demand a better, more inclusive future for all.

Through these videos, The Faces of North Carolina aims to dispel fear, foster understanding, and remind us that immigrants are our neighbors, friends, and co-workers, playing a crucial role in shaping the future of our state. Our collective fight for a better North Carolina is stronger and more beautiful when we stand together. Join us in this movement for justice and equality.

Farmworkers of NC

We are excited to introduce our latest campaign, "The Faces of North Carolina," which highlights the stories of immigrants and their families living in our state. In the face of anti-immigrant political rhetoric, we recognize that immigrants play a crucial role in the vitality of our community.

This, our introductory video, released in conjunction with National Farmworker Awareness Week spotlights a mother and daughter from North Carolina. Farmworkers generate approximately $69.6 billion for our state each year. Carolina’s family is one of the many immigrant families who make up NC and help our communities thrive.
