Hola!
My name is Iridián Martínez. I identify as Xicanx, queer, non-binary, and awesome. My parents migrated from México, so I am a first generation student. I am transferring as a Sociology major, Fall 2017. I aspire to organize with the comm(unity), specifically for anti-capitalism movements. My heart resonates with the people, so I spend most of my free time studying solutions for intersectional oppression. If you would ever like to organize anything on campus, please hit me up! (: Generational Trauma is a substantial event, behavior, or interactions that is subconsciously or consciously sustained through generations. I believe an example of this is conformity of oppressive behaviors toward womyn, by womyn in the Latinx community. Many womyn tend to accept toxic co-dependency due to the generational behavior carried from the origins of colonialism and the patriartical perspective colonizers imposed on the indigenous people of the (now) Mexican land. It is beyond crucial for people to learn about this, because once you understand the origins of an issue and that the issue even exists, the next step would be to dismantle the psychology that upholds the oppressive structure.
