““When I speak of Spanglish I’make talking about a fertile terrain for negotiating a new identity. I’make feeling excited, as Gloria Anzldua did in her book Borderlands/LA Frontera,about “participating in the creation of another culture/in a state of perpetual transition/with a tolerance for ambiguity.”
