Linguistic Anthropology Colloquium: "Linguistic Justice: Black Language, Literacy, Identity, and Pedagogy"
Dr. April Baker-Bell, Associate Professor of Language, Culture, and Justice in Education
In this talk, Dr. April Baker-Bell will discuss how anti-Black linguistic racism and white linguistic supremacy get normalized in teacher attitudes, curriculum and instruction, pedagogical approaches to writing, disciplinary discourses, and research, and she will discuss the impact these decisions have on Black students’ language education and their linguistic, racial, and intellectual identities. Dr. Baker-Bell will introduce a new way forward through antiracist/pro-Black language pedagogy.
