Description
"My three-year-old boy imitates his father's verbal rejection (bla-bla-bla) of Spanish language whenever I try to talk to him in Spanish." An African American student (also a fluent Spanish speaker) in one of my graduate level courses once shared her frustration over her thwarted efforts to teach Spanish to her son. She confided that her African American husband was biased against the Latino culture. As an infant, their son began learning some words in Spanish, but over time he picked up on his father's negative attitude. He started refusing to speak, or to be talked to, in Spanish. Other students in this education class shared similar stories from their own classrooms about minority children who display biased attitudes against other minority groups.
