Abstract:

This book honors the impactful contributions of Guadalupe Valdés
toward equity in multilingual schools and communities. As one of the
first language education scholars to examine the vibrant language
practices of bilingual users in the US Southwest, her work marked a
departure from traditional foreign language approaches and sparked a
movement focused on valuing heritage languages and creating more
equitable educational systems for young people from linguistically
minoritized backgrounds. Influenced by the work of Professor Valdés,
the contributors to this book draw on multiple aspects of her research
to look at new ways of addressing equity and social justice for
multilingual users in schools and communities. Chapters focus on three
major areas of her work: the nature of languages and literacies in
multilingual contexts, language development in classrooms and
communities, and equity and access. At the end of each section, short
interludes describe contributors’ personal experiences of learning
from and with Professor Valdés, providing insight into the practices
of mentorship and professional development within the field. This
volume will appeal to students and researchers across bilingualism,
applied linguistics and education, offering an overview of
developments in these fields and directions for future research on
equity in multilingual educational settings.
