Racial (in)justice in Creole Studies

With this evidence in mind, I'd like for us to look together at paths toward "success" against white supremacy in linguistics and education, especially in the Global South as in my native Haiti. *This is a flipped lecture style. Please watch Michel DeGraff's Keynote and read the Towards racial justice in linguistics" and Language as technology for power and liberation" before the attending the session.
