Without fail Iâve ran into someone who thinks I do/should speak Spanish. I have maybe .1% Spanish ancestry but encounter this everywhere. More recently, at a job I just started. It feels awkward explaining why I donât speak Spanish or wasnât raised speaking Spanish so I normally just speak the small amount I remember from high school or apologize like itâs somehow my faultâŚ.anyone else encounter this? My kids (especially my son because he looks the most like me) get this at school too. Instead of explaining why they know very little Spanish they just go along with it. I had a supervisor once get PISSED I didnât know Spanish and actually accused my parents of not âraising me rightâ. They arenât Latino/Latina eitherâŚ
