Put Some Respect on her Name! ft my MOM

23m · Minds Alike · 19 Aug 16:01

In this episode, my mom and I dive into her name, its value, its effects, and the importance of names as a whole. Names heavily impact not only your identity but your racial identity too. 

Mom--Monse Santana-Martinez was born in Spanish Harlem/El Barrio in the '80s. Both parents, Americo Manuel Santana/Carmen Chevere, migrated at different times from the Island of Puerto Rico.  These are our roots, whats yours :)
