Growing up, I considered my undocumented status the most vulnerable part of my identity. I didn’t speak about it unless asked and seeing as to how much my parents sacrificed daily through all their arduous labor, I worked diligently to excel as a daughter, sister, and student.
During the past 4.5 years, just as I was learning to navigate higher education and STEM culture, I immersed myself in a newfound sense of liberation. I became politically awakened around 45’s election during my first fall quarter and found myself steadily behind my professor as we marched in a campus wide student protest. Being “ni de aquí ni de allá”, I had so many uncertainties and yet, I began to question the political structures of this country (especially those that have affected my family all my life).
At times, my inquisitive nature triggered an anxiety that coupled itself with the manifestations of childhood traumas. When I faced Subject to Dismissal status as a late third year, I nearly lost sight of my resilience before choosing to reinvent the most important relationship I have, the one to myself.
Today, I am proudly inspired by those assets of my multicultural- intersectional identity which I once dimmed away thinking they made me vulnerable. I have never been more proud of my native Spanish tongue with all its flavors and accents 🤎
Amo ser una mujer #Mexicana 🌞
