Second Language Acquisition and Language Institute Lecture: Undoing White Supremacy in the Language Disciplines

September 11, 2020 @ 3:00 pm - 4:00 pm

This talk will discuss the white-supremacist and colonial underpinnings of linguistics, applied linguistics, and the modern languages, both historically and in the present day, followed by ideas for the specific individual and collective actions that need to be taken by educators, researchers, administrators, and students to reinvent our fields and the entire academy to center anti-racism, decolonialism, and social justice.
