Dear All, 

Taking a moment to share that our book An Introduction to Language and Social Justice: What Is, What Has Been, and What Could Be  <https://www.routledge.com/An-Introduction-to-Language-and-Social-Justice-What-Is-What-Has-Been/Avineri-Baquedano-Lopez/p/book/9780367725297> (Netta Avineri and Patricia Baquedano-López) is now available for preorder at the Routledge website.  In this book we center the Applied Linguistic Anthropology (ALA) Framework addressing its theoretical underpinnings and we offer strategies and tools for social justice action.  The book includes vignettes from community social justice advocates and scholars who have been doing exceptional work in language and social justice, including Uju Anya, Carla Marie Muñoz, Desirée Muñoz, Bernard Perley, K. Wayne Yang, and Rachel Showstack. We are very excited to offer this text to the ongoing work in language and social justice.
 
Back cover description: "This innovative, interdisciplinary course textbook is designed to provide the who what, where, when, why, and how of the intersections of language, inequality, and social justice in North America, using the Applied Linguistic Anthropological (ALA) framework.  Written in accessible language and at a level equally legible for advanced undergraduate and graduate students, this text connects thery and practice by sketching out relevant historical background, introducing theoretical and conceptual underpinnings, illustrating with case studies, discussing a wide range of key issues, and explaining research methodologies. Using a general-to-specialized content structure, the expert authors then show readers how to apply these principles and lessons in communities in the real world, to become advocates and change agents in the realm of language and social justice"


Rooted in a profound commitment to engaged scholarship, Avineri and Baquedano-López’s An Introduction to Language and Social Justice is a pathbreaking contribution which powerfully synthesizes diverse insights and generoously offers multiple entry points for dynamic praxis linking communication to the creation of more just societies —Jonathan Rosa, Stanford University

As a comprehensive review of the tenets of language and social justice research, An Introduction to Language and Social Justice adeptly synthesizes a heretofore heterogenous collection of scholarship into one unified text. The book is expertelly designed as a pedagogical tool with social justice principles at its base.  — Robing Conley Riner, Marshall University
