It's not just one language that these people are speaking, there are multiple that they grew up learning and knowing because it was essential to their culture. ]]> 2019-11-23 02:48:47 UTC https://padlet.com/jewelmnazareno/gr4a9rpuz2c1/wish/415591160 jewelmnazareno https://padlet.com/jewelmnazareno/gr4a9rpuz2c1/wish/422570940 I plan to use this article because it talks about the cast, which is clearly all Asians.
