The woman, an education advocate whose parents came to the United States from Mexico, is reflecting on her relationship with America and what the country’s semiquincentennial celebration means through the lens of an immigrant family’s experience.
Her story highlights the complex and layered feelings that many Americans with immigrant backgrounds carry as the nation commemorates 250 years since its founding.
