| Title | Ana Celia Zentella Interview: Keeping Languages Alive |
| Body | From http://www.voiceofsandiego.org/articles/2009/03/27/people/929zentella032709.txt To Ana Celia Zentella, you are what you speak. Zentella, a professor emerita of ethnic studies at the University of California, San Diego, has studied how languages shape our identities for decades, focusing on the role of language in Latino families. She glories in bilingual wordplay, decries "Hispanophobia" and English-only laws, and sees saving languages and the cultures that come with them as a social justice issue. Zentella recently edited "Multilingual San Diego: Portraits of Language Loss and Revitalization," a volume that includes 12 chapters written by her students on the languages that make up San Diego, from Kumeyaay to Korean.
