Utilizing an autoethnographic research design and an Indigenous family and community education model I try to capture a learning process from the perspective of the learner as opposed to an institution. I investigate my Native American heritage in the Americas by exploring cultural symbols for transnational significance, such as the mound structures in the American Midwest, examining their contemporary importance for me, a Chicana from the Midwestern United States. I do this by weaving the narrative of the mounds into the pre-Colombian narrative of the Americas, which becomes my own personal story of celebration and remembrance. I demonstrate that there are many counter-narratives that suggest that the American Midwest parallels the American Southwest as a site of Mesoamerican significance for the Maya as well as the Chichimec, Toltec and the Nahua people and I try to bring these stories to the forefront of historical consciousness for future generations to debate and build upon. By relying on the work of Indigenous and family and community education scholars, I learn to reclaim my own Indigenous knowledge network through story. And, I learn that I am not an immigrant to this country and I am not an immigrant to the Midwestern region, no matter where my family migrated to or from, this is my home and I belong!
