Missouri: Elizabeth Mendez and her husband, Heriberto Uribe, are members of Boone County's Spanish-speaking population. Both originally from Mexico, Heriberto and Elizabeth hope to improve their own English and are teaching their children, Anthony and Erik, both languages. Elizabeth hopes people understand that a language barrier doesn't imply incompetence on behalf of Spanish-speakers. All quotes have been translated into English from Spanish.
