"A rose by any other name would smell as sweet." How would this sound in any other language?

In this episode, Em & Rosa talk about language elitism and language hallucinations. How does an accent change the way people perceive you? Why can people even project an accent on you just because of how you look? 

We discuss our own journeys with our various languages and how it was not always a source of pride. We also try to find ways to figure out how to teach Cantonese to Em's future children.

Tune in to hear our perspectives in this episode dedicated to elitism and language!
