Mi Historia Familiar Mexicanoamericana
Un Diario de Herencia para Preservar las Voces y Recuerdos de Tu Familia
Lo que tu familia vivio merece quedar escrito — antes de que el tiempo se lo lleve.
For the Una persona de una familia mexicana o mexicoamericana que quiere preservar las voces, los recuerdos y las historias de las personas que la formaron.
The Name It First Experience
Las familias mexicanas y mexicoamericanas cargan una historia rica y compleja — de migracion, de trabajo, de resistencia, de tradicion y de amor. Mucho de eso vive en las personas, no en los libros. Este diario te ayuda a registrarlo: los nombres, los lugares, las recetas, las historias que se contaron a medias y las que nunca se terminaron de contar. Mi Historia Familiar Mexicanoamericana es un registro vivo de donde viene tu familia — en tus propias palabras.
You can opt into 30-, 60-, and 90-day check-ins from your account. We recommend you do — the point is to see what changed.
