This is America, we speak English

This is America, we speak English, is one one of my students' complain when we speak spanish in the classroom. His little brain (he is 20) doesn't want to believe that in His america the original language was a native american dialogue, that English is an european language brought to America by immigrants like himself.

I love how he thinks he owns his America, that nobody is better than him because he is an AMERICAN. Does the fact that he dropped out of high school and has no job or plans for the future afect his feelings of King, saddly no. He still believes that he is the most powerful man. In a way is good to see that he stills have some confidence left after his neglected life as a child, but in a whole different way is so sad to see that his closed mentality will only keep him from moving anywhere in his life.

yep, my wonderful job!
