At the invitation of the National Day Laborer Organizing Network, Manu Chao traveled to Arizona to witness the human rights crisis facing migrants there and to give a free “Alto Arizona” concert.
I shot a short music video of Manu in front of Sheriff Joe Arpaio’s infamous “Tent City” jail before the show on September 21, 2011.
Footage of Tent City donated by Daniel DeVivo and Valeria Fernandez. For more of their powerful imagery from Arizona, visit http://twoamericans.com
