I like the article about Gloria Anzaldua. It is because she talked about how she struggling when talking with wild tongue which is mixed Mexican and English. People required to use Standard English at work and how they have different dialect for each continents. Not just Spanish, there are a lot more. She has to use different dialect when she talks to different people. People tried to be racism based on their accent. However, that shows as an identity and we should not judge it based on that. The facts she explained it's all related with immigrants or bilingual because those people are facing with two different culture.
"Deep in our hearts we believe that being Mexican has nothing to do with which country one lives in."(42)
This is so true because everyone has different languages background and based on that we all have different belief so even we are not living in our home country, we always should remember where we come from.
