I decided to create an account after doing some readings for my class in Chicano/Latino Pop Culture. There was a line in there about how voices are never heard if they are not spoken or written, and though this should be common knowledge, some of us are still held back to do so. Therefore I decided to begin posting on here about my experiences and to catch some of my friends that I don't see up-to-date with my life. A brief introduction is necessary:
My name is Daniel Gonzalez, or Deno (what my family calls me). I was born in Long Beach, CA, but raised in San Bernardino. I am currently 25 years old and attendting school at UC Irvine. I am majoring in Cultural Anthropology, with emphasis in Chicano/Latino studies. Most of my studies has dealt with nationality, sexuality, and representation. I am graduating this June and after that I am taking some time off and then going back into graduate school, where I will work to get my PhD.
At the moment I am living with my partner of 6 years, and our family of three cats, a cockatiel, a dog, and two toads. Not your average family, but it works fine for us.
For now I think this brief introduction is sufficient...so stay tuned to "mi espacio"
