Humanizing Deportation Project is a digital storytelling project, managed by the University of California, Davis, documenting the human consequences of forced displacement on the Mexico-United States border through short videos created and directed by people who have experienced deportation. Various studies have highlighted elements of the project that situate it within forms of resistance and activism, even though it does not self-identify as such. In this paper I review the project’s most significant actions that intersect with different forms of activism, based on the conceptions proposed by other authors regarding social, digital, community, and epistemic activism. I conclude that the impact and the way the project contributes to knowledge building, visibility, and community building through digital media certainly align the project with multiple categories of activism. Moreover, the project engages transversally with various forms of activism which gives it a unique character, as digital tools are not only used to disseminate information but also to create spaces of resistance and alternative knowledge production.
