When the Dr. Polo He welcomed the young woman, but never thought the teenager would speak to him in English. “Good afternoon,” said the Cuban-American presenter, and in return the girl answered the greeting only in English; “Hello good evening“.
Visibly upset, Dr. Polo said to her, “No, no Good afternoon nor any Hello … You speak Spanish here … And your name is Luna, no Moon”. And the fact is that the television host told her that ‘Caso Cerrado’ is “a program in Spanish, here they speak in Spanish”, whereupon the adolescent informed him that she does not know the language; “but I do not know“When she was interrupted by Dr. Polo, who told her,” we cannot interview you.
When Dr. Polo asked her where she was from, the teenager replied in English that she was born in Colombia; “I was born in ColombiaBut the presenter insisted that he spoke to her in Spanish; “talk to me in spanish “, but the young woman explained, visibly hurt, that she was uncomfortable speaking this language.
Angry, the Dr. Polo He got up from his chair and informed her that the interview could not be continued unless she expressed herself in Spanish; “If you don’t speak Spanish, you go, so do you speak Spanish or do you go, do you understand me?”, The host told the young woman.
However, the girl did not stop to express herself in English, an attitude that was made Ana María Polo; “I’m not playing with you, you’re not going to challenge me. I am not interested in your challenges, pigs and idiots. You’re Colombian, what flows through that blood is Colombia. So make no mistake. If you don’t speak Spanish, you will leave in the next word, ”the TV presenter and the litigant expressed furiously.

Ana María Polo’s attitude provoked all kinds of reactions, from those who applauded her guts to defend her language over others, and others, on the contrary, who disapproved of her actions.
Imagine that in a few years in Spain there is a Moroccan program and the presenter starts yelling at a Spanish citizen that she does not speak Spanish despite it being our official language. Would you support that?

Unpopular Opinion: They are not manners.
I wonder if he would dare do that to a grown man. It’s not the girl’s fault that she doesn’t feel well speaking Spanish, and that attitude isn’t going to motivate her to speak it.

There are millions of people like this, denying their native language because they are complex, because they hate or because they don’t get along with family members. And it’s not just happening in Latin America, but all over the world
