Linguistic Justice: Bridging cultural gaps in CEL courses

Martin Luther King Jr. Planning Committee

Pettengill Hall Room G65

Through a workshop catered towards students interested in community engagement we will break down the importance of linguistic justice, the inherently white supremist nature of English in academic, as well as the ways in which language-based justice can promote Black and Brown joy, achievement, and belonging in academic spaces. Ideally the resources shared and collected during this workshop will be shared with the Harward center as a resource guide for future students. We hope to partner with a group of students to lead an a poetry workshop at Lewiston Middle School, promoting linguistic diversity and multilingualism in academic writing. As students who are both multi-lingual this workshop is an opportunity to share our cultures and how language can be a powerful form of resistance.Led by: Marisela Flores Pineda ’23 and Sam Jean-Francous ‘23
