“Like Sandra, a small, but rising portion of first and second generation Hispanics in Utah find themselves stuck in a cultural dichotomy that schools and society are not prepared to deal with.

This cultural dichotomy is not new to Hispanics born in the United States.

Eighty-year-old Jessie Soriano, who was born to Mexican parents in the United States, said he always thought of himself as a Mexican until he was stationed in Europe during the Korean War and someone yelled “Yank.” He said he was shocked when he realized they were talking to him.”
