		Thus scorned, La Malinche lets loose her jealousy and kills first the new bride, then her son with Cortez, with the dual purpose of exacting vengeance on Cortez while attempting to make up for her betrayal of her Mayan roots.
		Morton's changing of history can be forgiven, but his deconstruction of the "Medea" myth for his own political purposes (having La Malinche kill her son more as a sacrifice for her own betrayal of her people than as originally intended in the myth) is inexcusable.
		La Malinche's sacrifice of her and Cortez' son to "get in good" with the Mayan's is a weaker and disturbing motivation.

	Laura Esquivel—Reconquering Malinche - 2/15/2006 - Criticas - CA6305733
		Malinche served as an interpreter because she was a slave and had no choice.
		Malinche came from a culture that contemplated duality as the basis of religious faith—all the gods had a masculine and a feminine representation—and she probably resented the Aztec Empire for betraying this spiritual tradition.
		I would love it if my Malinche became a role model for those women today who must “conquer.” Women living in two worlds who must leave their land and belongings to cross the borders of places where they are not well received, where human rights are not respected.

	American Passages - Unit 2. Exploring Borderlands: Context Activities
		According to Bernal Díaz del Castillo's account of La Malinche (whom he calls by her Spanish name, Doña Marina), she was born into a royal family but sold into slavery when her mother and stepfather decided her existence might threaten their son's position as sole heir to their throne.
		In actuality, La Malinche's role was probably far less important to the fall of the Aztec Empire than Cortés's military skills, the Aztec chief Montezuma's weakness, the military contributions of rival indigenous tribes, and the spread of European diseases that decimated native populations.
		In any case, La Malinche had been repeatedly sold among tribes as a slave and thus probably did not perceive any particular group as "her people." Indeed, she may have felt that she was working with Cortés to conquer groups she herself identified as enemies for holding her in slavery.

		Cuando Cortés llegó en 1519 a las costas de Tabasco tras la victoria, lograda gracias al espanto que produjeron los caballos, vino la paz, que los indios hicieron, según su costumbre, entregando a las mujeres a los antiguos enemigos.
		En la historia de México Malinche se convertirá en un símbolo del indio seducido y abandonado, dando lugar al término malinchismo, con el que se señala la entrega a lo que viene de fuera y la incapacidad para valorar lo propio.
