Eva Longoria is everything
Yet she canโt even speak Spanish ๐๐ ๐๐ ๐
Thatโs pride alright lmfao
She donโt have to, but donโt talk all that shit if you donโt even learn your own culture #lame
you were saying @dabeatnik???
ummm
โWhen I was growing up, my parents spoke to each other in Spanish, but they didnโt speak to us in Spanish because they were told not to. In school we werenโt allowed to speak it.โ
and also???
โโฆ But America is the only country that promotes monolingualism. Here itโs English, English, English. Every other country makes their children learn a second language very early on. So as my political and social activism grew, I was like, โI really need to learn Spanish.โ So I did.โย
idk how many people iโve known growing up in texas whose parents speak fluent spanish but they donโt speak a lick solely because their parents were afraid or told not to teach their children. itโs unspeakably common and doesnโt in any way shape or form diminish someoneโs claim to or pride in their heritage.ย
fuck that guy. you go eva.ย
lack of intergenerational language exchange is one of the leading causes of language death for endangered and indigenous languages because of this culture of shame attached to โlesserโ coded languages so frankly if yr mocking people for not speaking their mother tongue without taking the colonial reasons for this into account, youโre an ignorant prick and you can go fuck yourself like
