It is racist and not inclusive now to expect people to learn English because it erases their culture. A friend of mine is a teacher and has a bunch of migrants in her class since they got rid of ESL classes as "isolating." So she has to Google translate everything she says. And they write their essays in Spanish and Google translate them to English.
That's genuinely heartbreaking. Part of me can't help but think that women being the overwhelming majority of teachers cultivates this kind of self-destructive deference.
