In an era of crescent cultural globalization, cultures originally
from south of the U.S. border are fighting to stay alive inside the
classrooms of compulsory educational institutions. Day after day
students in these settings are suffering the effects of a cultural
McDonalization. These effects pollute their skills as well as their
vernacular voices. Social sciences are created neglecting what
students and parents bring in the form of a primeval culture.
Hence, history is explained in an archaic context, nation-state
model, perhaps valid for the nineteenth century but entirely dmod
for the current social configuration. This critical
(auto)-ethnographic research searches to answer these questions by
hearing the vernacular voices that are empowered by the funds of
knowledge within each barriohood and are prepared to give rise to a
zone of cultural comfort (ZCe. In such zone, Latin-American
cultures and the mainstream culture illuminate each other. After
more than ten years of learning and teaching in the United States,
tha author has come to realize that California has the optimal
scenario within public schools to create a model of communicative
actions.
