Manage episode 378554615 series 3322416
When we think about what makes us Latinos, our common language comes to mind. But what if we don't speak Spanish? In this episode, we discuss what language does in terms of our identity with our guest Dr. Aisha Cort, who has been studying the intricacies of language and how we communicate. From shame around accents, or not understanding family members, to using language as a weapon or as an icon of pride, we talk about it all.
