He was proud of speaking foreign languages, but ashamed of the language that connected him to his roots.
Sometimes, we spend so much time trying to impress the world that we forget where we come from.
**THE MAN WHO DENIED HIS OWN LANGUAGE** is an emotional African short film about identity, culture, self-respect and the importance of embracing our roots.
Your language is not a weakness. Your culture is not something to hide.
Watch, share and tell us: **Should anyone ever be ashamed of their mother tongue?**
