In this heartwarming video, I share a personal and emotional journey about my mom's unwavering connection to her childhood neighborhood in Queens. Despite the passing of time and physical distance, the cultural roots of her upbringing have remained an integral part of her identity, shaping her values and traditions. The neighborhood, with its rich Italian heritage, continues to hold a special place in her heart, and its influence can still be seen in our family's customs and way of life. Through stories and anecdotes, I explore the profound impact of my mom's Queens neighborhood on our family's history and how it has helped to preserve our cultural roots. By sharing these family stories, I hope to inspire others to reflect on their own cultural roots and the significance of their childhood neighborhoods in shaping who they are today.
