Do Your Students Experience Linguistic Racism? Discover How to Celebrate Diversity in the Use of Language.

Linguistic racism is the linguistic oppression, dehumanization, and marginalization that speakers endure when using a language other than White Mainstream English. It incorporates the belief that there is something inherently wrong with any other language.

To combat this, you can implement linguistic justice practices that recognize that multiple expressions of language diversity are assets to learning and human development. You need to develop an understanding of hierarchies of language oppression that restrict and deny people access to their full potential.

Award-winning educator Dr. Quintin Bostic will explain the issues surrounding linguistic justice. You will learn how to dismantle linguistic racism in the classroom.
