Vietnam Memorial Designer Maya Lin
Vietnam memorial designer is the talented designer Maya Ying Lin. The Civil Rights Memorial was designed and created by Maya Ying Lin with a vision that when the future citizens of the world will come to pay tribute to individuals who died in their struggle for freedom and equality during the Vietnam War, they will be able to virtually contemplate their deaths. She wished to build the place in a way that when the visitors touch the names engraved on the Memorial Wall made up of two huge black granite, they could see their own reflections on them, alongside the whispering names of the martyrs.

Official Mexican Languages Spanish Indigenous
The constitution of Mexico did not formally classify any language(s) as the official Mexican language(s). Mexico being a country with a majority of diverse European ethnic backgrounds, no single language is given the predominant position of an official language. Spanish is spoken by the majority of Mexicans (about 97 % of the population) and hence, it enjoys the status of a de facto official and a national language. It shares this status with more than sixty indigenous languages. The General Law of Linguistic Rights of the Indigenous Peoples has granted the national language status to Spanish and the indigenous languages.
