As a Mexican American myself, it was fascinating to read about the experience other Hispanics experienced in school in the youtube videos. Being able to recognize the struggle and pain heard in the voice of those adults who not only experienced the racism but the Hispanics whose children experience the racism. While thankfully I can say I did not experience racism like this, I was and am still exposed to microaggression. For me, as an educator, it is so important to make sure that racism is never seen in my classroom to all lengths. I know that words hurt and they stick. I still remember the microaggression I heard when I was younger and for that to be from an experience I had years ago is very telling. These are traumas that I would not want any student or parent to experience. Seeing the video and hearing the parent's voice of being told that Spanish being the main language at home is the problem resonates with me because I primarily speak Spanish to my parents. For me, I am willing to lose my job if it means I am protecting and standing up for what is right not only for my students but for my own morals. For example, during the Black Lives Matter protest, I know of teachers who had gotten fired for publically supporting BLM. This is absurd to me that a teacher is not allowed to publically post their support for an organization that is doing good for the community and rights of people of color. Very sad to even hear that these types of organizations are seen as controversial and politicized. Why do we continue to politicize the rights of people of color and minorities?
