We Are All Americans - episode four

In episode four* of We Are All Americans Cinthia Marisol Lozano shares stories of their experience as a first generation American reconnecting to their Pipil and Lenca indigenous ancestry, as well as how the important radical act of simply living as a queer person of color helps them stay grounded and optimistic.We Are All Americans is a podcast series Inspired by the fact that my Russian great-grandfather gained his US citizenship after serving in the US Army and my Lithuanian (or Austrian, or Russian, or Latvian - depending on who is telling the story) great-grandmother entered the US on fake passport. Each episode is a different recorded conversations about how family stories are passed down from generation to generation and what it means to be American in the contexts of multiculturalism, immigration, military service, black lives matter, white privilege, and indigeneity.*Recorded on July 11, 2018 at Otis College of Art and Design in Los Angeles, CA.
