Clara Molina – Multilingua: Journal of Cross-Cultural and Interlanguage Communication, 2024
Language ideologies are a powerful way of perpetuating inequalities, as peripheralized speakers who have internalized the lack of legitimacy attributed to them often end up reproducing censure rather than resisting it. Foregrounding the affective dimension, this paper explores the role of shame as a fulcrum articulating the individual with the…

Regina Morin; Ann Warner-Ault – NECTFL Review, 2025
There exists a dearth of textbooks for teaching medical Spanish and Spanish for law, justice, and human services through a social justice lens.
