SDSUs Center for Latin American Studies also offers Mixtec. What is Mixtec and why would someone want to learn it?
SDSU’s CLAS has the only Mixtec classes in the United States. In addition, it offers a study abroad summer experience in Oaxaca, Mexico, where Mixtec is still spoken. Most Mixtec speakers live in the Mexican states of Oaxaca and Guerrero, and many have migrated to the United States. California has many Mixtec speaking communities, including neighborhoods in San Diego, Madera County, Los Angeles, and the Salinas Valley. Social service providers, hospitals, schools, and other institutions need Mixtec speakers.
