Without diversity, I would not have the friends I’ve been blessed with. Without diversity, I would not have my son. Without diversity, I would not have my niece. Without diversity, I would not have had an extended family that helped me raise my children. Without diversity, I wouldn’t know how to make tamales—food is very important. I weave the friendships I have into my stories because I don’t know any different. We are a mixture of different worlds that should be celebrated.
