Questão de Língua Inglesa

Read the excerpt below, in which Gloria Anzaldúa describes her experience as a child with Mexican descent in the United States of America:

I remember being caught speaking Spanish at recess – that was good for three licks on the knuckles with a sharp ruler. I remember being sent to the comer of the classroom for “talking back” to the Anglo teacher when all I was trying to do was tell her how to pronounce my name. “If you want to be American, speak ‘American.’ If you don’t like it, go back to Mexico where you belong.”

(…)
At Pan American University, I and all Chicano students were required to take two speech classes. Their purpose: to get rid of our accents.
Attacks on one’s form of expression with the intent to censor are a violation of the First Amendment.

(…)
Wild tongues can’t be tamed, they can only be cut out.
