It focuses on how theracially and linguistically diverse dual-language program constructs ideasabout race and Latinidad, and forms the Latinx group.Prof. Chávez-Moreno posits that the bilingual programadvanced an imagined Spanish as the signature boundary delineating the Latinxracialized group in relation to other racialized groups. She also argues thatbilingual schooling may become a false champion for a future anti-racist,anti-imperialist, decolonial Latinidad if this schooling does not disruptracially inequitable outcomes and encourage Latinxs’ critical consciousness.She invites teachers and educators to embrace ambitious teaching about the ambivalenceof race, an approach aimed at enhancing critical consciousness about race.**WE ARE ALSO ON AUDIOAUDIO “Conversations with Calvin; WE the SpecIEs”ANCHOR https://lnkd.in/g4jcUPqSPOTIFY https://lnkd.in/ghuMFeCAPPLE PODCASTSBREAKER https://lnkd.in/g62StzJGOOGLE PODCASTS https://lnkd.in/gpd3XfMPOCKET CASTS https://pca.st/bmjmzaitRADIO PUBLIC https://lnkd.in/gxueFZw
