My Piece Deals with my desire to embrace my mexican heritage as well as accepting my identity as a lesbian. The piece is intented to let that who find know that you can embrace all of your identities as one. In my case I am a Mexican woman who has been living in the U.S longer that my country of origin. In this case it is easier for me to accept my homosexuality becuase I have embraced my "American" identity after so many years of living here. It is easier for me to be myself in this country. Now I want to speak out and embrace myself as a whole and let other like myself know that we (mexican/latina lesbians) exist.
