Raciolinguistics of Spanish in the U.S.. Ideologies, Identities and Pedagogies - Lina M. Reznicek-Parrado;Tracy Quan;Tyler Méndez Kline;Jazmina A. Isordia;Julia Menard-Warwick

While Spanish in the U.S. is ideologically associated with Latinx identities, it is widely used by people from varied backgrounds. Though Latinx individuals notably cross racial and linguistic boundaries, these realities have never impeded the imposition of monolithic raciolinguistic ideologies on Spanish speakers. This volume unites scholars working across diverse contexts of language use to explore how raciolinguistic ideologies affect the symbolic significance of Spanish among U.S.-based individuals. Each chapter is a call to action to fully engage with the raciolinguistic complexity of Spanish in contemporary U.S. society and educational settings, engaging across ideologies, identities and pedagogies.
