I relate to her story so much. I got my associates last year from a local community college and now at a four year university. Working part time and university full time as well. So proud of you Estrella❤❤️!!

🇲🇽 I’m navigating this right now and let me tell you it’s been the biggest challenge in my life. The day I walk that stage I just know I’m going to be crying like a baby

Thank you for this opportunity TEDx ❤

I absolutely enjoyed this. Thank you so much for bringing awareness. As a first generation, Latina college graduate and dreamer, the journey to obtaining a higher education is tough. I felt identified and inspired by your story.♥️

[@ajmonge101]

Thank you for sharing your wonderful story! As a first-gen student there were multiple times where I felt alone and left out of the conversation. Your words provided a much needed comfort and gave strength to the power of resiliency. When we choose to stand up for ourselves, we are creating a space for ourselves at the table and widening the gap for future students of color.

Listen up my brothers..

[@lulo1951]

Not wife MATERIAL..

[@lulo1951]

Nothing worse then a so-called EDUCATED WOMAN OF COLOR.

[@Pinesol605]

Shut up! This isn’t about being a wife it’s about breaking generational curses and not being a statistic. First gen students are 27 percent likely to graduate college! There nothing wrong with pursuing a higher education. Sounds like you got dumped by a so called “educated” woman. You don’t sound like husband material fukkin chauvinist!
