I have just begun reading Ruth Behar's memoir "Travelling Heavy" and I had to pause to share these small passages in which she opens up about her conflicting relationship with the English language, as an Immigrant/Ex-pat from Cuba to the USA. #currentlyreading #langtwt 🇨🇺👄🇺🇸

Happy birthday, Ruth Behar!

"It’s such a meaningful affirmation. I feel I’m being told to keep writing." —Dr. Ruth Behar mrschureads.blogspot.com/2025/02/newber…

"I thought of Abuela and the ancestors and felt such awe. The next day, after the announcement, I told Mami and Papi, who are 89 and 91. They’d never heard of the Newbery, but were glad my book had won a prize."-Ruth Behar
