“Those women remind me of a culture and people I refuse to forget. Respecting what they do. Their sacrifice goes noticed.

I hope mis sueños go noticed too.”
Kelsey Milian Lopez, The Sociology of A Miami Girl

“I know how flowers bloom now.”
Kelsey Milian Lopez, The Sociology of A Miami Girl

“My parents pulled memories from the root and packed them into their suitcase when we immigrated here.

Stories told enthusiastically embellished con amor y agradecimiento for growth, healing, conflict, and trauma.

Recuerdos I'll retell when I remember how I reached my American dream.
El destino final.

And how my ancestors know that.”
