Contraportada

The personal stories of a Mexican-American born into the San Antonio Barrio in the late 1940s, including family stories, cultural tradition stories, learning English by total immersion, socialization as a minority, education, and stories of her mother as a single parent, and women’s stories from a minority point of view.

Rich in family and heritage, Consuelo Samarripa’s stories may just help you discover more of yourself.”
---Elizabeth Ellis, NSN Circle of Excellence Storyteller and NSN Lifetime Achievement Award Recipient

I have known Consuelo from Olden Times in Austin, when we were both hacking a path through the spoken word jungle of a Bi-Lingual Toastmaster Club. The same quiet humor, the same true-to-life voice of a little girl growing up in South San Antonio; they are still there. The big issues, of money, race, and politics, they are present, shaded by the shawl of a powerful voice that whispers.”
