Hosted by Joseph Puentes, Nuestra Familia Unida: History and Genealogy is a deeply personal project dedicated to uncovering and sharing the interconnected stories of our communities. This podcast moves beyond broad historical narratives to focus on the specific lineages, cultural traditions, and lived experiences of people across Mexico, Latin America, and the entire Western Hemisphere. You’ll hear explorations of identity-from the terms La Raza, Chicano, and Chicana to Hispanic, Latino, Latina, and Indigenous-all within the wider context of Native American peoples. The aim is to build a comprehensive, collective resource, a worldwide repository of history told through the lens of family and heritage. Each episode contributes to this growing tapestry, examining how the past shapes our present identities. By delving into genealogy and historical events often overlooked, the series fosters a profound sense of connection and understanding. It’s an ongoing conversation about where we come from, inviting listeners to reflect on their own place within this vast, shared story. Tuning in means participating in the preservation of a rich and diverse legacy for future generations.
