“Basque was my mother’s first language, it was the food she grew up with, the dances she learned, the songs she sang, while it was frowned upon at school. English language, name changes, this occurring as the backdrop of World War Two, arguably one of the most Americanizing time periods, coming after immigration legislation against it.”
