What’s It Like To Be Extra-Hyphenated?
from Hyphenated with Joanna Hausmann and Jenny Lorenzo Hosted by Jenny Lorenzo, Karla Guerra
Jenny welcomes back her best friend Karla Guerra, who was born in Honduras to her Honduran mother, but raised by her Colombian step-father’s family in the United States, as they talk about her experience not feeling Colombian, Honduran or American enough, growing up with family members who felt the need to overly-explain why she looked different than them, what it’s like to interact with Hondurans when she wasn’t raised with their customs and food, and how being “extra-hyphenated” might actually be the basis of Latin American culture.
