You are correct. If our grandparents weren't forced to stop using their native language, we would all be fluent in Cajun French. Unfortunately, that's not the case and the Cajun French language will be gone in a very short time. Because we gave up ours, does that make it right that we demand today's LEGAL immigrants to turn their back on their heritage?
