* In 1997 in Amarillo, Texas, a small insurance agency hired two women clerks who were bilingual in English and Spanish to deal with their Spanish-speaking clients. Their employer became paranoid when they spoke Spanish to each other and asked them to sign an English-only pledge, which they refused to do. They were fired. The two women felt insulted, while their boss felt they were “whispering to each other behind our backs.”
