Anchor Baby

Keir is the one that encouraged me to make my own podcast and he introduced Garret to me. I have learned so much from these two guys. They have learned some hard lessons and have grown very wise! I normally focus on talking about immigration and being chicana but for this episode I introduce these great guys on my podcast. We talk about what the far future may look like. I have a feeling you will be hearing from them again! Keir is a grammar nazi that says he’s blind yet he drives. Garret is a bear that went to prison and found God.

I had some old emotions resurface recently, not good ones. Things get a little political in the end.

Jamilka is half Ecuadorian and Dominican. She's a very different kind of Latina than me. I wanted to ask my best friend some things. I'm so thankful we have stayed friends through the years. I once walked to Arby's in footie pajamas with Jamilka, for a jamocha shake.

I got to ask my friend Rita some questions on a beautiful summer afternoon outside. She is "morena". On the exterior she is Latina, but she's not Hispanic. She was raised by white parents and loves Ozuna. I always found her so interesting and I wanted to know her perspective on things. Thank you Rita for being my first guest!

My family just wasn't meant to be together for the holidays, having my family together was just never meant to be. How to put a positive spin on that one?

This is an introduction of my history and where my mind is at when it comes to being a first generation immigrant.
