Language. 🧵
So when I was a kid, I was forced and trained to learn English because I was told English is a superior language and so I obeyed, this backfired because my peers wouldn't talk to me because I spoke heavy English and not my own Language, making me an outcast.. 1/7
ppl are acting so shocked by this when there are parents who think speaking in english at home would give their kids an advantage in life only for these kids to grow up feeling alienated from their own community 🙃
