Tourist To My Own Culture, Guadalupe Astorga Contreras
Tourist To My Own Culture, Guadalupe Astorga Contreras
First-Gen Voices: Creative and Critical Narratives on the First-Generation College Experience
After nine years of living in the U.S. and staying away from her cultural homeland of Mexico, photographer Astorga returned to some of the places she remembered visiting as a child in her native country.

Only 45 Minutes Away, Guadalupe Astorga Contreras
Only 45 Minutes Away, Guadalupe Astorga Contreras
First-Gen Voices: Creative and Critical Narratives on the First-Generation College Experience
Being a part of an immigrant family, photographer Astorga has not had the chance to travel much even within her home state of California. Trips through class, clubs and events sponsored by Loyola Marymount University have provided her with the opportunity to visit places like Catalina Island right off the coast of L.A. and see things she and her family had only talked and dreamed of.

Hereisthefamilymotherfatherdickandjane: An Analysis Of Parenting And The Dick And Jane Readers In Morrison’S The Bluest Eye, Rachel Roseman
First-Gen Voices: Creative and Critical Narratives on the First-Generation College Experience
First-generation college student Rachel Roseman has found the American educational and cultural systems to privilege the white, upper to middle classes. As Toni Morrison demonstrates in The Bluest Eye, those who do not fit this mold often lack educational support and have to learn how to navigate cultural systems on their own. Unlike the character of Pecola, who features in the following essay, Roseman had a strong community and family who supported her decision to attend college and, as a result, achieved success.

Understanding School, Tiffany P. Ta
First-Gen Voices: Creative and Critical Narratives on the First-Generation College Experience
As a first-generation college student in the Silicon Valley, author Tiffany Ta grew up in a high-achieving academic culture that she only really began to unpack and understand in college. Upon being exposed to more diverse cultures and backgrounds, Ta began to realize that her upbringing was vastly different than many others, and that some of her classmates' behaviors were unnatural. This poem reflects how she now feels about the experience looking back.

Ice, Genesis Montalvo
Ice, Genesis Montalvo
First-Gen Voices: Creative and Critical Narratives on the First-Generation College Experience
Commonly known as ICE, the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement works to monitor the level of illegal migration to the United States. They also are in charge of at least 40% of deportation of innocent, non-criminal immigration violators. At times, the children of these immigrants are born in the United States. As US citizens, ICE cannot deport them without violating their rights, resulting in the separation of families. This poem speaks of a young child whose mother was deported by ICE and the yearning of wanting to know where the mother is. The mix of English and Spanish reinforces the …
For The Dreamers, Mariajose Gomez
For The Dreamers, Mariajose Gomez
First-Gen Voices: Creative and Critical Narratives on the First-Generation College Experience
"For the Dreamers" reflects the author's experience on a De Colores immersion trip to Casa de Migrantes in Mexico, Tijuana. This was Gomez's first time traveling out of the country, and the experience helped her realize that no human being should be considered “illegal” simply because of man-made barriers. The piece exposes the complex social dynamics that inform the experiences of both immigrants and citizens of the United States. The purpose of the poem is to challenge readers' views on immigration and highlight the role social constructs and stereotypes play in establishing preconceived ideas about immigrants. The author hopes readers …
Sheep In A Grotto, Laken D. Brooks
Sheep In A Grotto, Laken D. Brooks
First-Gen Voices: Creative and Critical Narratives on the First-Generation College Experience
Many first-generation college students undergo feelings of inadequacy in what is known as "impostor syndrome." This piece of fiction is born from such feelings of identity confusion and formation. The story functions as a written snapshot of an otherwise normal teenager whose life is threatened by a sexual assault; she faces and overcomes trauma at the cusp of her coming of age. Brooks' tale incorporates a raw focus upon the protagonist's ability to persevere and thrive in the face of violence. Ultimately, this text transcends a single character's journey into womanhood to reflect a message of hope and growth.

Ruined For Life, Facundo Gonzalez Icardi
Ruined For Life, Facundo Gonzalez Icardi
First-Gen Voices: Creative and Critical Narratives on the First-Generation College Experience
As a first-generation college student from a low income family, Gonzalez Icardi never thought he would have the chance to travel outside his home country. This reflection expresses his deep gratitude for the opportunity to study at LMU, and his eagerness to take advantages of the services that the university provides. Gonzalez Icardi found his Ignacio Companions trip to be eye opening, expanding his awareness of how other cultures live; though heartbreaking at times, Gonzalez Icardi remains grateful for the experience.
