On Wednesday, April 23, 2025, memoirist, poet, and speaker Javier Zamora came to East Aurora High School to talk about his award-winning memoir, “Solito”, where he explores his own harrowing journey to the US as an unaccompanied nine-year-old that gives a unique and unforgettable glimpse into the realities of child migration.
In his talks, he shared the story of his trek to reunite with his family, and how therapy and writing were able to help him heal from the trauma that has haunted him ever since.
Families and community members were inspired by his story and many had Zamora autograph their own copy of “Solito”.
Our East Aurora High School Survivor Literature students and teachers Shane Gillespie and Sarah Gillespie organized this event which was the precursor to the upcoming “My Way to Freedom” 23 mile walk to highlight the topic of immigration and connect with Javier Zamora’s journey to America. The walk will start at 8:00 a.m. on May 3, 2025 at Wilder Park in downtown Aurora and finish at the not-for-profit Centro de información in Elgin(https://centrodeinformacion.org/). Come on out and cheer them on before they start their walk!
El miércoles 23 de abril de 2025, el escritor de memorias, poeta y orador Javier Zamora llegó a East Aurora High School para hablar sobre sus galardonadas memorias, “Solito”, donde explora su propio y desgarrador viaje a los EE. UU. como un niño de nueve años no acompañado que brinda una visión única e inolvidable de las realidades de la migración infantil.
En sus charlas, compartió la historia de su viaje para reunirse con su familia y cómo la terapia y la escritura lo ayudaron a sanar del trauma que lo ha atormentado desde entonces.
Su historia inspiró a familias y miembros de la comunidad, y muchos le pidieron a Zamora que autografiara su propia copia de “Solito”.
Nuestros estudiantes y profesores de Literatura de Sobrevivientes de la Preparatoria East Aurora, Shane Gillespie y Sarah Gillespie, organizaron este evento, precursor de la próxima caminata de 37 kilómetros “Mi Camino a la Libertad”, para destacar el tema de la inmigración y conectar con la travesía de Javier Zamora hacia Estados Unidos. La caminata comenzará a las 8:00 a. m. del 3 de mayo de 2025 en el Parque Wilder, en el centro de Aurora, y finalizará en el Centro de Información sin fines de lucro de Elgin (https://centrodeinformacion.org/). ¡Ven a animarlos antes de que empiecen su caminata!
