Santiago Andres Garcia
Hello and welcome everyone! My name is Santiago Andrés Garcia. I was born in Monterey Park, California, and of Ixtlahuacán-Jaliscan lineage and ancestry (Mexico). I am a full-time Professor of Anthropology at Los Trade-Technical College with an established record of scholarly work. My purpose in life is to help students achieve their personal and educational goals. As an Indigenous Chicano Anthropologist, I am adamant about revitalizing and preserving ancestral knowledge systems. I strive to imagine and build sustainable health, food, and family living practices. The biggest questions of the day deal with the human body and its relationship to the land. How did humans evolve and coexist alongside plants and animals? What role did the Earth’s natural resources play in our growth as complex human beings? How did humans survive in severe stress when unfavorable conditions dominated night and day? What Native medicines have humans harnessed over time, and how did the body heal?
