In episode two* Lauren Vazquez, Michele Jaquis and Estela Sanchez discuss what they know and don’t know about their family histories.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 May 19, 2018 as part of the Veterans & Immigrants Oral History Recording Skill Share Workshop at Side Street Projects in Pasadena, CA.
