Bobby LeFebre wore a necklace with large, red cylindrical beads over a gray cardigan and although he was sharing his story and poems virtually, audience members could feel his words resonate as if he were in the same room as them.
“My great grandparents’ generation, they were like ‘well, this name seems kind of like it can also be kind of gringo, like we could fit in a little bit better than maybe others can like a Martinez or Ramirez, or other Spanish surnames that are more common,’” LeFebre said. “You could do a lot with this French name so they started pronouncing it with more of this English sounding way to kind of like blend in to whiteness and this culture that was dominant and attached to power and privilege.”
