Why would someone who isn't English be expected to be fluent and accent-free? This is because of assimilation and what happens when English is the primarily language we all speak as United States Citizens.
Although the Spanish came to America before the English, English is still dominating and those who speak with an accent are not allowed to teach. English is not the most spoken language in the world, so why would it be in a diverse country like America?
Is having to learn proper English oppressive? Hell, the fuck yeah it is.
English is the hardest language to learn because it is stripped from sound, rhythm and is basic as hell. The only people that should be speaking English are those from England, nothing more nothing less. English is only dominating if it has something to do with the global workforce that you at some point will have to be subject to.
