Here is my interview with The Language I Speak Director Ana Cuadra:

The Language I Speak – Ana Cuadra (Plainfield, New Jersey)

The Language I Speak is an exploration about the regional varieties of spoken English in America, how our language connects us as humans, but it can also divide us, how it can box us in categories of race, socio-economics, class and gender. Are dialects and accents something that classify us as talking weird or something to be celebrated in the new globalized world? 2022; 60 min.
