Political education doesn’t work when those whose views have been formed based on misinformation can weaponize the same concept to deny facts. Trying to change the mind of Trump voters in my family using facts was always met with “that’s liberal misinformation.”

I got tenure! Latinas make up ~1% of tenured faculty at R1 institutions. I'm the 1% bc my parents worked in cucumber fields over the summer to make sure I had access to the American Dream - new school clothes, a HS diploma, and a job out of the sun. I dared to dream bigger. 1/2

I dreamed of a future where #firstgen students become professors, where barrio girls grow into chingonas who take up space in institutions not ready for them. Thx to mi familia, mentors who guided me, grad school friends who hyped me up & students who give me hope for the future.
