Davalos argues that quinceañeras are coming of age events that help define cultural and sexual identities, sort of like Moraga. #chst302

I like that, in her article about #Quinceaneras, Davalos acknowledges that there isn’t ONE form of “tradition” or “authenticity.” #CHST302

The first #quinceanera I went to was for a half Canadian, half African American girl. Just goes to show tradition is ever-evolving. #chst302

I do not agree with the idea that a quinceañera is a way of holding on to your roots. It’s a sweet 15; a glorified birthday party. #CHST302

“The American dream isn’t as easy to achieve as it seems, so why not live it up” It is very sad that many minorities think this. #CHST302
