A Transraciolinguistic Approach for Literacy Classrooms
Reading Teacher, v75 n5 p545-554 Mar-Apr 2022
Across the globe, students increasingly use literacies to cross boundaries, locally and globally, virtually and geographically, willingly and involuntarily. They cross these boundaries with versatile linguistic backgrounds that allow them to effectively navigate new school and life worlds. Many students who cross boundaries are students of color who wrestle with what it means to critically read the word and the world even as they grapple with racialization. At the intersection of students' border-crossing, languaging, and racialization are opportunities for understanding how teachers can center race by identifying and leveraging literate assets that immigrant and transnational students of color use to make meaning in and beyond classrooms. In this article, I present a transraciolinguistic approach as an intersectional and critical tool for centering race and racialized language while also addressing border-crossing in students' literacy practice. Recommendations for teachers who wish to foster a transraciolinguistic approach to support critical literacy practice for all students are discussed.
