Through the stories of three older adults from Tlaxcala, we learn about the childhoods of Nahuatl and Otomí speakers who were forced to leave their native languages behind in order to adapt to a society alien to their worldview, and who now face the threat of extinction despite their efforts to preserve their languages.
