Event Details

Discover Mexico’s linguistic diversity with us as we uncover Mexico’s forgotten indigenous languages. Join us as we bring together the local Nahuatland Mixteco communities of New York to hear personal accounts as well as video footage on what it means to know an indigenous language and not a “Dialect.” Come and see how we can raise awareness on how to better serve this vastly growing multilingual community.

Descubre la diversidad lingüística de México con nosotros. Ven a descubrir las lenguas olvidadas del México moderno. Únete a nosotros para conocer a las comunidades de hablantes de Náhuatl, Mixteco que viven en la ciudad de Nueva York. Te invitamos a escuchar sus historias, sus cantos tradicionales y sus producciones visuales. Hablaremos de lo que significa conocer a ciencia cierta una lengua indígena y hablarla como lengua materna y que esta sea calificada por el resto del mundo como un "dialecto". Unanse a nosotros para informarse del mundo multilingue del México Indígena y para ayudarnos a servir mejor a esta comunidad multilingüe.
