The video content of this project is a reflection and documentation of philosophical, theoretical, and pragmatic approaches utilized by Union de Vecinos in order to address social injustices. As described in the review of literature Union de Vecinos applies liberation theology, liberation psychology, community social psychology, and participatory action research as a methodology to empower both individuals and community to create a historical identity. What is attempted in the videos is a documentation of ideals that aspire to empower individuals through both preventative and promotional approaches. Solutions to problems have been ongoing and at times confrontational in regards to confronting the issues at hand, more often with success than without.
