asking children to speak in 'standard' or 'academic' language often gets framed as a social justice effort helping children to acquire and master dominant forms. yet this vision of justice focuses on changing individual behaviours as opposed to systemic, transformational change.

So hard to pinpoint their target audience here

Still recruiting Black or AA school-based #SLPs for a focus group #researchstudy! The study's purpose is to explore Black school-based SLPs’ personal and professional identities, and the impact of intersecting identities on collaboration. More info here: https://t.co/InoF7GhwZO

Me & my partner looking through a list of inventions by Black ppl cause it was a question on the Blackening & baby, let me tell you how Black ppl have modernized the world. Almost every piece of technology tht has advanced us as a society has come from a Black person. Blood banks, cell phones, stop lights, dryers, pacemakers etc etc etc

By embracing linguistic diversity, challenging stereotypes, and advocating for equitable communication opportunities, we can break down barriers and empower individuals to communicate confidently in their own linguistic expressions.

[Jordyn @JRC_theSLP]

As speech-language
pathologists, we play a vital role in combating linguistic racism and fostering inclusivity

[Jordyn @JRC_theSLP]

We recognize the power and beauty of all languages and dialects, and we strive to create safe spaces where every individual's unique voice is heard and valued.

"We affirm strongly that teachers must have the experiences and training that will enable them to respect diversity and uphold the right of students to their own language."

“Standard American English” is a hypothetical construct.

IT DOES NOT EXIST.

[Jordyn @JRC_theSLP]

"Such a claim leads to false advice for speakers and writers, and immoral advice for humans.

A nation proud of its diverse heritage and its cultural and racial variety will preserve its heritage of dialects."

Language choices are ethical choices. The terms we use in Speech & Language Therapy to label & describe children at times can be more harmful than useful.
