This article is fabulous. "Being Multilingual becoming more essential" - Boston Globe, 10.17.07
I dedicate this photo to all the people who have scoffed at me over the past ten years, and to those who still do, for majoring in a language in college and for studying abroad. I also dedicate this photo to all of the xenophobic colleagues I've had the pleasure of working with in the past. Specifically to the one who said they "hate it when people come this country and they can't speak English," knowing full well that is the case with members of my immediate family.
F off.
(sadly the Blogger photo upload function isn't working at the moment... )
