Unsettlers
Storytelling as a practice of repair.
A literary and community-rooted project by Adriana Camarena — grounded in collective memory, creative inquiry, and storytelling.

About Adriana
I’m a writer, community-based researcher, and visual narrator living in the Mission District of San Francisco. My work moves across stories of migration, grief, accompaniment, and memory—often told alongside the people who live them.
Storytelling
Narrative projects that explore migration, memory, grief, and forms of resilience through essays, photography, and collaborative installations.
Community-Led Research
Participatory action research projects co-created with Latine immigrants through cultural and expressive practices.
Advocacy
Accompaniment and advocacy for families impacted by police violence and other forms of state harm.
Grieve, refuse to forget, strive to remember —seed repair.
