My culture
I never realized how beautiful my culture is. I am Mexican from both of my parents. My mom is from Tijuana and my dad is from Mexico City. In my mom's side of the family we have some Native American from my great great grandmother. She was from a small tribe in Arizona and she was a redhead with green eyes. She headed down to Mexico where she met my great great grandfather. He had some sort of Spanish in him and he had brown hair and green eyes. Then my great grandma(who i consider my grandma because she raised my momma)came along and she had my grandma and my grandma had my mom. Then on my dad side I just know we are Mexican, haha but i do know that at some point in time I had family who were Aztecs. I don't know I guess I just find it fascinating how the Mexican Culture came about. I took a Art History class of Mexico last semester and it just made me appreciate where i come from more. I feel bad for people who are ashamed of their culture or don't try to learn more about it because the Mexican history and art is so beautiful.
