Quote: "I will no longer be made to feel ashamed of existing. I will have my voice: Indian, Spanish, white. I will have my serpent's tongue--my woman's voice, my sexual voice, my poet's voice. I will overcome the tradition of silence."
Question: Do we still have this problem of silencing Spanish women voices? What criticism does our society make about Spanish women (or Spanish speakers in general) the most?
In my opinion, to many Spanish speaking women are judged due to their lack of expertise of the English language, which is one of the most difficult languages to learn as a second language. I believe as technology advances, we will have easier ways of communicating with people of different languages, as it is imperative for us if we want to advance as a global community
