It took more than 60 years for them to graduate.
It wasn’t because they were bad students.

In 1942, more than 450 Japanese American students were forced to leave the University of Washington after being sent to incarceration camps during World War II.

On May 18, 2008, the university finally awarded them honorary degrees.

Some returned in wheelchairs. Some returned with grandchildren. Some never lived long enough to see it happen.

Many people of Mexican descent, especially in the US, do not speak Spanish due to colonization. When the United States took possession of the US Southwest from Mexico, the Mexicans and Natives living in the region were forcibly assimilated into "American" society - forced to forsake, to abandon, all their original languages, including the colonial language of Spanish and to embrace colonialist English.
Many of our parents and abuelos have shared the experience of being punished in school for using the Spanish language. In like form, our ancient ancestors were severely punished by the Spanish for speaking their native languages. Both English and Spanish are foreign languages to this land.

Not speaking Spanish does not make anyone any less Mexican or Chicano! Ignore anyone who says otherwise. ✊️🦅🪶
