We describe how a visit to a Zapotec heritage site was leveraged to promote positivity and multilingualism among Zapotec language learners in Teotitlán del Valle. Students created “identity texts” drawing on their Spanish and Zapotec language skills to showcase their emergent multilingual identities and sense of community as language learners.
