Anything For Selena Podcast

Episode 6. Selena Quintanilla may have built her career singing Spanish songs, but she didn’t grow up speaking Spanish at home. She learned Spanish in the public eye, and her mistakes became some of her most famous and endearing moments. In this episode, Maria explores why Selena’s Spanglish seemed so revolutionary for its time, and yet so familiar to many fans who also struggled with the language of their heritage. The exploration takes us to an unexpected place.

Latinas B2B Podcast

I want to thank Wendy Ramirez, Founder of SpanishSinPena.com, who brought me to a calm space of why we were on this Podcast regarding speaking Spanish or how we discriminate those that don't. I understand this language is not our own, unless your 100% from Spain. However, this podcast touched a very sensitive and personal aspect of me to reclaim the Spanish language, as my Mexican culture is deep within my heart with the language. I have anxiety and have struggled to get to the source of why "not speaking Spanish” has been so hard for me.
