R.I.P. MIGUEL A. PEREZ, JR.
4/17/ -10/6/2025
On November 14, 2023 a large group of Chicago communities, activists and politicians protested and marched through Washington D.C. demanding equal immigrant rights. We visited U.S. Senator Tammy Duckworth and stood by our local politicians, U.S. Representative, Chuy Garcia and Pilsen Alderman Byron. This film was made possible by S.H.E. Gallery and Miguel A. Perez, Jr., a deported veteran who was granted a state pardon in 2019.
We regret the loss of Miguel, who passed away while visiting family in Guadalajara, Mexico on Monday,October 6, 2025. We express mourn and deep condolences to all of his loved ones.
May he rest in peace.
Remembering Miguel A. Perez, Jr.

Little Village Lawndale H.S.
Mural Youth Club
On May 13th, 2001 fourteen community residents of Little Village neighborhood staged a nineteen day hunger strike demanding the construction of a new high school. The high school had been promised, but was put on hold for monetary issues. Almost four years later the Little Village Lawndale High School Campus opened its doors to four hundred students in the fall of 2005. The campus is comprised of four autonomous small schools: Multicultural Arts H.S., World Language H.S., Social Justice H.S., and Infinity: Math, Science, and Technology High School. Learn More ,
Fall, 2024 - S.H.E. Gallery joined the new Mural Youth Club led by World Language H.S. instructor, Ms. Ana Castillo. The Club has been instrumental in aiding education regarding public art forms and in designing and executing a mural to honor the hunger strikers that opened the doors and made LVLHS the school that it is today.
