Abstract:

This book contributes to the understanding of the transformative power of
incorporating translanguaging, the dynamic language practices of
bi/multilingual communities, in the schooling of US Latinx children and youth.
It showcases instructional spaces in US education where Latinx children’s and
youths’ translanguaging is at the center of their teaching and learning. By
centering racialized Latinx bilingual students, including their knowledge
systems and cultural and linguistic practices, it transforms the
monolingual-white supremacy ideology of many educational spaces. In so doing,
racialized bilingual Latinx subjectivities are potentially transformed, as
students learn to understand processes of colonization and domination that
have robbed them of opportunities to use their entire semiotic repertoire in
learning. The book makes a strong theoretical contribution to the field,
putting decolonial, post-structuralist understandings of language and
bilingualism alongside critical race theory and critical pedagogy.
