In an era of crescent cultural globalization, cultures originally from south of the U.S. border are fighting to stay alive inside the classrooms of compulsory educational institutions. Day after day students in these settings are suffering the effects of a cultural "McDonalization". These effects pollute their skills as well as their vernacular voices. Social sciences are created neglecting what students and parents bring in the form of a primeval culture. Hence, history is explained in an archaic context, nation-state model, perhaps valid for the nineteenth century but entirely démodé for the current social configuration. This critical (auto)-ethnographic research searches to answer these questions by hearing the vernacular voices that are empowered by the funds of knowledge within each barriohood and are prepared to give rise to a zone of cultural comfort (ZCC). In such zone, Latin-American cultures and the mainstream culture illuminate each other. After more than ten years of learning and teaching in the United States, tha author has come to realize that California has the optimal scenario within public schools to create a model of communicative actions.
