Yeah, I think for me, citizenship has been a big core question mark in terms of like, how do we define it? Because, I mean, obviously there's like the legal with their terms and everything like that. But I think for me it's just kind of like also just kind of like seeing my parents and my family and just a whole bunch of other people who are in this country and just kind of like participate in so many different ways. I think that's kind of like influenced my thought about just kind of like how how I think about like citizenship and I think for the most part is just really being a part of this society and contributing to it in so many different ways. And so for my parents, I mean, I think they've contributed and their own ways in terms of like like working and paying taxes and all that, but also helping to like bring culture and like build a sense of community. Because my parents are from Oaxaca, Mexico. And so there were one of the first people to come here to the country from from their pueblos. Yeah. And their families and things like that. And really leading the way for that, for the migration pattern for folks, for for my family. And so here they also help sort of like that culture. And and I know I grew up here like very rich in culture, right. Doing a lot of that collaboration from meeting with family and just doing like a lot of like the a lot of the cultural stuff that that they did back home bringing it here. And so and I think that's really rich just kind of like the city as well, too. I mean I mean, you think about like L.A. and you think about how diverse it is. I mean, you think about just kind of like even food, right? Like you can drive anywhere in the city and find like, food from all over the world, you know? And then like, and like, especially, like out on the west side where like a lot of, like Oaxacan settled that you can find like a lot of, like Oaxacan food. Right? And so I think if it wasn't for like their contributions and, and their and their ability to like bring their culture and establish those cultural patterns here that like, we wouldn't have that aspect of life here in L.A., you know, and you wouldn't have it anywhere in this country as well, too. I feel like that's been her contributions, you know, on top of just like raising like my brothers and I, you know, and and like my brothers and I, we've all taken different paths, but I feel like we've all contributed to it, you know, And and a lot of that has been because of my parents, you know. And so even like in myself is like I think is raised the question of me. It's like, well, how do I participate in like, how do I participate my citizenship and what do I have to offer? You know, it's I know and went from very individual in terms of like my parents are like, you know, you got to get an education, you got to work for yourself for a better future. You know, the reasons why they came here, you know. But I think I've expanded that and just kind of like knowing that I come from like South L.A. and knowing that I've been a part of a community that my parents have in, well, same community, but in a way that my parents haven't, you know, because I was born here. And that comes with so many different identities and things like that, you know, and and just experiences. I know I always talk to my like my brothers and like peers about just kind of like how especially when I was younger, about how hard it was for my parents to understand what we're going through, even just kind of like walking our home from school as our lived experiences here in the city are so different than my parents, you know? And so I think beyond just kind of like my own, like accomplishment and education and things like that, I think is really questioning like, well, what's my role here? You know? And so I totally I mean, I mean, there's a lot of need here. I mean, that's kind of like why I'm doing the work that I'm doing right here because of the experiences that I that I faced growing up here. It's really like safety, you know, walking to and from school and having to look behind my back. You know, my my brother was involved in gangs, you know, So like, I grew up around that environment, you know, and and like, a lot of my peers were also involved and caught up in the system as well, too. And and you talk about like poverty, you talk about like access to like resources, talk about all those things, you know? And then I was seven years old when the when the rebellion, the uprisings happened here in Salt Lake. And so I remember like in the nineties, like what did it look like? And just kind of like the attacks on undocumented folks here and just like a lot of like just the conservative just kind of like just craziness that happened here in California in the nineties and just kind of like the, like, like literally the physical lack of investment here in South L.A. And so I think that helped shape my purpose because I feel like like something needs to be done about this. You know, I we talk whenever I share my story. I always talk about like being angry as a young person, as a teenager because of like, I, I saw it and I recognized it, but I didn't really understand why things were happening. Right. And so a lot of returning to anger, anger, anger for like like my brother being caught up in gangs and being caught up in the system. Anger for my parents having to like work, no income jobs. And I do graveyard shift like still struggle, you know, as hard as a word, anger for like my brother just being kind of my younger brother. You know, you always take a look at your younger ones and it's like he's like, I want to do so much for you. I'm just trying to, like, figure that out for himself as well, to add to the situation that we're in. I think I was just so angry, but I don't feel like I developed that understanding until I got to college and I was like, Oh, okay. Like there's actually systems involved. There's actually a history behind why things are the way that they are. You know, it's I feel like my contributions as a citizen has really been like, all right, well, like I'm going to contribute to it. And I being a part of just like that change, right. And lifting up these issues and being able to like, yeah, create that change that we want to see, right? That change, like we always talk about like social justice circles. And then for me is like participating in activism at UCLA.

Where the Prop 87 Pete Wilson and a lot of the anti immigrant things and so I think I was in instrumental bridge here I forgot what age I was exactly but I was really young right. And so I remember just kind of like this heavy just seen it on the news often and my parents talking about it often and and going to school and hearing other classmates talk about it who might have been in the mainstream, I don't remember. And then just hearing like a whole bunch of people just talking about it and just kind of feeling the fear and for me was just like really not understanding this. Like, well, why there's so much fear around these things, right? And I didn't understand, like what, what undocumented or in that age it was like illegal man and any of that. Right. Especially because my parents were like permanent resident, you know, So to a certain extent they had a level of protection. But for me it was just really confusing. So I think that was the first moment where I started realizing it was like, Oh, okay. Like there's different like classes here. There's different perspectives on like what is citizenship and what's not and what's acceptable citizenship and what's not right. And that even got more complicated because it's kind of like, like, like and this is what I mean in terms of the legal term is like there's the legal term, but there's also just associations that that are connected to like overall Latino Latinos. Right. Is like almost anonymous If you're a Latino, you're illegal. And so for me, that even made it more complicated as a young person because I was like, what? You know, like my parents, like, are they legal or not? You know? And so for me, it's like I think that's the moment where I started, like really starting to like, think about that. And also that's good because I don't really fit in really angry because I'm like, Well, why? Why there's so much hate? Why is there so much like, like, so why are things so messed up, right? And why there's so much hate towards a group of people, right. That's really causing like this real fear and this real level of anxiety? Because I think that's really where I started like really questioning and started like developing this idea of like citizenship.

I mean, I'm even thinking about like, what About the people who don't choose to, like, participate in a positive way, right? Like, what does that mean for their citizenship? Right. Because even thinking about my brother is like, at some point in his life, he wasn't really anything positive, you know? But I would still consider him a citizenship. And I'm even thinking about just kind of like other parts of the country, people who are actively working against like a lot of like what I'm working towards. And then there are citizens as well, too, right? And so I think yeah, I mean, I think it's really complicated, but I think at the end of the day, I mean, it's like, like, like, yeah, I mean, we're on this country. We are we're all shaped by and we're I contribute to it. And so I think some citizenship can be attached to legal things. I mean, I think it's I mean, it's it's hard to define.

Like we we have to actively think about what it means and we have to actually like figure out like what it looks like for us, you know, whereas folks who who are born as citizens and who aren't Latino, Latino, they don't have to think about it, right? So they take it for granted. And so they take it to take advantage of it. And so like that, that privilege, right. Where you don't have to think about it.
