Who Am I ?
Areli Arredondo
Am I Hispanic, Chicano, or American

How do I know and why do I care
Does it matter if I don’t know
Does my identity really define me
Why do I not know what to say to people when they ask for my ethnicity
Why does it matter if I know or not
How do I know when I come from parents who migrated to the U.S.
I was born here so does that make me an American
Or am I Hispanic someone who is a native of, or descends from a Spanish-Speaking country
Or Chicano/a who is someone who is native of, or descends from, Mexico and who
Lives in the United States
How will I ever know they are so similar
