season 3 - episode 6

In episode six of season three ,* Holly M. Crawford and Michele Jaquis share their individual family stories about love, trauma, illness, protest, silence, and believing versus questioning… all while grappling with the question of what do we do with the stories we hold and their effects on our present day relationships. 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 Aug. 21, 2020 at the ICA LA as part of Field Workshop: Action Projects, in the midst of the global COVID 19 pandemic and the reinvigorated Black Lives Matter movement after the murders of Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery, and George Floyd.
