Albuquerque, NM – Conversation by conversation, StoryCorps Historias is collecting the Latino stories and voices of our time. College professor Betty Duran, born and raised on Pojoaque Pueblo, talks with her son Matthew about the joy of becoming a mother... But the first time Betty discovered that she was pregnant, she was surprised, and not exactly elated...

Betty Duran speaking with her son Matthew Duran. Their conversation was recorded last June at a StoryCorps Historias mobile booth in Albuquerque. Editing by Candace Miller-Murphy.

The StoryCorps Historias Albuquerque project was made possible with support from the New Mexico Humanities Council and the National Hispanic Cultural Center. Go to kunm.org to listen to recordings from the project an subscribe to the podcast.
