Sofia and Cynthia sit down with Irisneri Alicea Flores as a returning visitor on the podcast. Irisneri shares weeks of intuitively guided research on Cynthia´s paternal lineage in Yucatán, Mexico. Irisneri takes a deeper dive into the living conditions in these times and the impact of Spanish colonization in Yucatán, Mexico and the maya people. Cynthia and Sofia put the epigenetic pieces together and find the commonalities of Cynthia´s fighting spirit and her Maya ancestors' deep rooted ways of resistance and representation. We explore the benefits of uncovering genealogy records for medical and big picture reasons.

This is a LIVE Sobremesa conversation that occurred on October 26, 1983.

Cynthia invited Erika to the podcast to celebrate her latest Ebook, "In Mexico We Don´t Say - A Not So Serious Guide to Sound Mexican AF."

Erika started sharing her love for language on IG as "How to Spanish" with a loving tagline of "And I think that's beautiful" that makes learning Spanish phrases not only easy but relatable. Her book provides history of language through the colonization of Mexico/Tenochitlan. What we love about the book is the space held for Indigenous history and personal storytelling. This book will make you laugh but like most Mexican stories, it may make you cry, too at the beauty of our collective conversations and how they have evolved over time. Erika has other Spanish language offerings and is definitely a Mujer who is making ancestors proud. Find her work on IG: HowTo Spanish and get her book!
