In this podcast I engage in a conversation with people who have left their home countries and came to live in the US. I talk to women and men who feel uprooted and whose lives unfold between cultures. We talk about the challenges and opportunities that each of these women and men have faced in their journey to becoming multicultural citizens in the American workspace and in their communities, and we reflect on how those experiences have shaped their understanding of the US and their respective countries.

S1 E08 - Delmis Umanzor. La vida en EEUU como hija de inmigrantes

Delmis tiene 25 años y es la coordinadora de “Mi Espacio”, un programa que ayuda a inmigrantes adolescentes a insertarse de manera más sencilla en la sociedad americana. Delmis es hija de un padre y una madre que emigraron desde El Salvador. De niña, Delmis tuvo que hacerse cargo de ayudar a su mamá y papá a navegar el sistema americano ya que sus padres no hablaban inglés. Escribir los cheques para pagar las cuentas, traducir las conversaciones en las consultas médicas y con agentes del Estado, fueron algunas de sus tareas como niña. Hoy se siente una privilegiada, no solo es la primera de su familia en tener un título universitario, sino que, a diferencia de los y las adolescentes con les Delmis trabaja, ella creció en un hogar con madre y padre, tuvo acceso a cobertura médica, y no creció en un ambiente violento. Hoy en Uproot, que en castellano quiere decir desarraigo, vamos a hablar con Delmis, sobre cómo es nacer en los EEUU y al mismo tiempo sentirse salvadoreña, sobre la discriminación que ha sentido en este país por ser latina, sobre los terribles desafíos que enfrentan los y las adolescentes que no tienen seguro médico en EEUU y sobre la comunidad latina joven en DC y Maryland.
