Migrant Regional Speech & Debate Tournament 3.16.13

This Saturday, Rio Vista Middle School is hosting the annual Ventura County Migrant Regional Speech & Debate Tournament. I am looking forward to speaking at the event, just before the students receive their awards. In thinking about themes for my brief talk I am considering the following; the power of words, the power of voice,  bilingual, trilingual and multi-lingualism, and saying BRAVO to all the participants for being brave, and taking part in this great event. I am also working on the speech in English, Spanish, and a few Mixteco phrases from languages I am learning associated with San Martin Peras and San Martin Duraznos.
