Summary:
The story of political powerhouse twins Julián and Joaquín Castro began in the small room that they shared with their grandmother Victoriana in San Antonio, Texas. Victoriana crossed the border from Mexico into Texas as a six-year-old orphan, marking the start of the family's American journey. Her daughter Rosie, Julián and Joaquín's mom, was an activist who helped the barrio through local government. The strong women in their family inspired the twins to get involved in politics. Julián and Joaquin have been working at the local, state, and national level as a former presidential candidate, mayor and member of President Obama's Cabinet, and a U.S. Congressman, respectively to make the country a better place for everyone.
