description Maybe I didn't want a label when it came to my heritage because, while in Mexico, I also struggled to find my place. I was the kid who spoke English at home, whose mother didn't look, dress or speak like the other mothers in Jocotepec, Jalisco. I was the kid who didn't attend church regularly, whose peers in that small and modest community thought her family was wealthy. I didn't imagine that being a minority alone would qualify me for any job. I didn't understand that I was part of the affirmative action recruiting initiatives that were prevalent at the time. Minorities make up about 33 percent of the U.S. population. Currently, they make up 13-6 percent of newsrooms nationwide. While that doesn't mirror society, it's a significant improvement since the mid1980s, when minority employment was about 5 percent, according to the American Society of Newspaper Editors.
