Title: "Starting and Progressing on Your Antiracism Journey with Linguistic Justice"
Becoming an antiracist is a lifelong process that only starts with recognizing diversity. For writing teachers and other literacy instructors, seeing diversity means seeing that all languages are created equal. This presentation argues that we must not stop there, however, in order to work toward linguistic justice for all. Ultimately, linguistic justice means ensuring the rights of all writers to use all their languages in any rhetorical situation, regardless of the politics of appropriateness.
