After Diosa went VIRAL for discussing the history of language violence, we noticed many people questioning the validity of that history. In this episode, we dive into the history of language violence in the American Southwest, Mexican-only schools, and the modern-day pochos, aka No Sabo Kids.
Listeners from around the U.S., share their experience with the Spanish language. From reformed no-sabo kids to a transracial adoptee, listeners share their experiences with their cultural identity.
Thank you to Gia, Paula Zaremba, Doctora Rene Lemus, Breana Quintero (aka Bre Burrito), Jenna Palacios, Marissa Reyes, and Rebeca Ruiz for contributing to our audio archive.
