Reading Between the Toxic Lines

Author Bio: Hello! My name is Karina Garnica and I am a Grad student at CSUDH studying TESOL. I am also currently in the process of receiving my single subject teaching credential in English. I've always had a passion for language and culture, as these amount to so much more than of communication, but are foundational to our identities. Language can be utilized as a profound tool towards social justice. We can all use language in our quest to be the change that can benefit our communities and our environment. Aside from my passion with linguistics, you'll most likely catch me outside on a hike, or playing in a soccer game, or in at home writing and playing music.
