Abstract
En este artículo exploro mis experiencias como investigadora local durante el trabajo de campo. Discuto las emociones personales relacionadas a la discriminación lingüística, la internalización de las actitudes negativas que los hablantes tienen sobre su propia lengua. Asimismo, discuto las relaciones de poder local en el tejido comunitario al cual mi familia pertenece y la violencia que experimento como mujer. Como investigadora local expongo las realidades y adversidades a las que me enfrento haciendo investigaciones y trabajando en proyectos colaborativos en mi propia comunidad con los hablantes, educadores y autoridades municipales. A pesar de las dificultades y limitaciones en mi rol como investigadora y promotora de la lectoescritura, expongo actividades que promueven la lectoescritura y la revitalización de la lengua chatina.
In this article, as an inside researcher I explore my experiences during fieldwork. I discuss personal emotions related to linguistic discrimination and internalization of speakers’ negative attitudes toward their language. Also, I discuss the local power relations in the community social network to which my family belongs, and the violence I experience as a woman. As a local researcher I unveil the realities and adversities that I face doing research and working on collaborative projects in my own community with speakers, educators, and local government. Despite drawbacks and limitations in my role as researcher and literacy advocate in the community, I showcase ongoing activities that foster literacy and revitalization of the Chatino language.
