season 2 - episode 7

In episode seven* of season two , Maria Elena speaks of her assumed indigenous ancestry and shares stories of her life after immigrating to the US from Guatemala some fifty years ago. 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 October 22, 2019 in West Hollywood, CA.
