Six weeks after my mother passed away, I made a pilgrimage from my home in Austin to the museum dedicated to the memory of Selena Quintanilla-Pérez, located in the northwest outskirts of Corpus Christi. My connection with the Queen of Tejano Music goes back three decades, before I immigrated to the United States. I was the rare Mexico City kid who worshipped Selena as if I’d been born in South Texas, or at least in northern Mexico, where she was as revered as she was in the U.S.
