Miguel Villegas Ventura, also known as Una Isu, was born in San Miguel Cuevas, Juxtlahuaca, Oaxaca, Mexico. He was raised part of his life in San Miguel Cuevas and migrated to Fresno, California, when he was 7 years old. Internationally he is known for his innovative trilingual rap music combining his native language Mixteco, Spanish and English that covers topics such as Indigenous languages and his lived experience as an Indigenous (Mixteco) migrant. His internationally recognized song “Mixteco es un lenguaje” made a huge impact within the Indigenous language movement, demanding the recognition of Indigenous languages as formal languages rather than just dialects. Una Isu advocates for the preservation of  Indigenous native languages through his music, workshops, and activism.  Scholars, such as Dr. Lynn Stephen from the University of Oregon and Dr. Gaspar Rivera Salgado from UCLA Labor Center cites Una Isu’s songs to understand issues on the history of U.S. immigration, Indigenous farmworker movements, and Indigenous cultures and traditions.
