Abstract | Throughout my life I have come home to Modesto, California more times than my heart can remember; it is my heart that remembers and keeps my hometown ever present. Today, I am an Assistant Professor at the University of San Francisco. Yet, who I am today is profoundly intertwined with the little girl who grew up in the Central Valley as a daughter of working class Mexican immigrants. This is my "testimonio"--my truth-telling story--of how I learned from the sacrifices my parents made as "Mexicano" immigrants pursuing a dream of a better life for their children in Central Valley California, and it is the story of learning from my family's knowledge, strengths, cultural resources, and Community Cultural Wealth.
