What's New

What does Hispanic Heritage Month mean to me? To be honest, this month creates mixed emotions. On one hand, it brings me joy to see my food and culture embraced and celebrated by so many different people. On the other hand, there’s an uncomfortable notion that people will eat my food and celebrate my culture but will not support me as a person. My experience growing up as a Brown immigrant taught me that unfortunately, some people in this country will appropriate parts of my culture but reject the rest. People will drink their margaritas while listening to the mariachis but become noticeably upset if I speak Spanish with my family in public places. I also have mixed emotions that Hispanic Heritage Month encompasses so many people and countries grouped together under a single term.

"I am a marketing student at the University of San Diego and I am entering my senior year, which is very exciting, after a full year of being abroad. Since returning from France, if I’m not hanging out at the beach, I’m probably thrifting, at the movies, or attempting to bake sweets at home (and failing miserably). I’m super stoked to be here at Puzzle Pieces this fall and learn from the very best about spreading genuine good into the world."
