sometimes I forget about how unique the Chicana experience is. We really are in between two countries and two identities, especially for someone who’s a multi-generational Chicana growing up in a border city. Either way, I cherish being Latina and I have such a rich culture that I am continuing to learn about every day even if it wasn’t part of my life from the beginning. I love being able to play in mariachi and connect myself to my roots and origins ♥
