We Are All Americans - season 2 - episode 8

from We Are All Americans · host Michele Jaquis

In episode eight* of season two, Maria Laura Hendrix shares stories of her childhood growing up first in Mexico and then on a citrus ranch in Ventura County, CA, and the disappointment that she feels that despite her Naturalized US citizenship and American education (she is about to complete her MFA degree) she may always be seen as not American enough.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 November 26, 2019 at Otis College of Art and Design in Los Angeles, CA.
