These days, people are endangered of losing their identity and becoming, simply put, someone from the crowd. One way for someone to lose their identity is to lose their language, their mother tongue. Both Anzaldua and Talhouk try to encourage people like them to focus on preserving their language and their speech/writing on a strong encouraging note, but the tone of their writing/speaking and their audience differ greatly.
  Firstly, In her presentation (2014) ((I really don't know what to call this...)) Anzaldua addresses the Chicano immigrants like herself to not be embarrassed by their origin and to embrace it. Having an immensely tough childhood, always being harassed and discriminated against by the society because of her language, Anzaldua didn't give up, calling it a part her identity. "I am my language. Until I can take pride in my language, I cannot take pride in myself (p.39)". In contrast to Anzaldua, Talhouk's speech is more globalized as her audience is centered around a whole nation and the language of interest is one of the most broadly used ones in the world - Arabic. In Talhouk's case, the language itself isn't heavily discriminated against, but rather it's considered a low-class language and the author's goal is to shatter that misconception and fire up the people's love for their language once again.
  Another difference is the tone of the authors' writing/speaking. Anzaldua's presentation((once again, no clue what to call this)) mainly contains strong words of encouragement to those like herself. Anzaldua writes about her personal experience with the unfairness of people and "lingustic terrorism"(p.38) hoping for other Chicanos to learn from the examples taken from her own life and feel better about themselves. Talhouk, on the other hand, tried to encourage her audience by trying to assess and explain the situation her country is in at the moment, sometimes even getting close to begging for people not to kill her/their language. Talhouk believes that the best way of killing a nation is to kill its language, thus deleting it's identity, which is one of the main points of the speech. By finishing the speech on "Let's get rid of this cultural cringe."(min.13:54) Talhouk ends the speech on a high note once again confirming the strong points discusses earlier.
  In the end, although Anzaldua and Talhouk had similar problems and similar ways to solve them, the scope in which they where operating was very different, thus creating the differences mentioned above.
