This has been quite a week for Fernando Valenzuela and Mexican-American Dodgers and Dodger fans. Tuesday, Valenzuela, one of my childhood heroes, had his number 34 jersey retired. There was a whole weekend of festivities in his honor, including a video of his brothers and sister congratulating him all the way from Mexico.

Alright, so who's the new girl on the block? My name is Celina Yvette Martinez, a proud latina with a big personality. At 18 years old I left my small town of San Luis, AZ to pursue an education at the University of Arizona. I packed my bags (literally 1 suitcase and a bag full of chips lol) and made my way to the Dirty T!

For me, it went so much farther than learning all my students’ names—it also became about their identities. Who were these people in my classroom? Where did they come from? What experiences have they had?
