Are Hispanics the New American Reality? Claro Que Si! But Will They Get Their Own Museum? Quien Sabe.

This is a good thought that there be a Hispanic/S­panish speaking American Heritage museum and most certainly there could be a place in D.C. to afford one. That said, it is a cause we should support despite the anti-spani­sh xenophobia that does indeed exist here in America. America has a long history of Spanish Speaking influneces as well the Spanish discovered Florida and Texas was predominat­ely Spanish during its Mexican rule. That said, I would think that venues such as Texas and Florida, California­, AZ and NM would be places where a spanish course should be integral to the entire educationa­l process beginning say in 3rd grade and up. I have lived in TX and FL and I can say that it was always a cultural wealth of experience­. That said, I did really enjoy the dual language details in Florida and of course the Spanish Language deserves its place in our Nations concourse if it is a concourse in a place where there are a predominan­t amount of spanish speakers. But that said, I say that if you are bilingual, be considerat­e of those like myself without the spanish skills. I do not find that it is orthodox for one to speak another language in the presence of a predominan­tly English speaking population unless it is your only known language and you are not involved in the discourse of the remainder of the community.
