Welcome my Mami! Teresa is my mother, and spoiler alert this interview is in Spanish! Mom grew up along the border of Michoacán and Guanajuato, in rural Mexico.  She talks about growing up and what her responsibilities en El Rancho were as a little girl.  She then details the traditional engagement of her older sister.  My grandfather and uncles were part of the Bracero Program.  And as such, she came to California at the age of 14 for the Pizcas.  From California, Oregon, and Washington, she picked different fruits and vegetables.  Eventually she made her way down to the Los Angeles area with her newborn son.  She worked for a teacher, and went to adult school to learn English.  It’s there, where she met my father. We end our talk with her sharing what she would like to do next in her retirement. ¡Escuchen!
