"I don’t go to my local mercadito simply bc I need a Diet Coke. I go to clear my head btwn deadlines & hear abt the mischief the owner’s dog has been up to. Those simple transactions create a kind of human glue. Automation strips them away." h/t @cmonstah https://t.co/vkncxIgjx9

It’s a border crossing card

[LangCapitalProject @LangCapProject]

Yesterday evening, a young man in Menlo Park was passing these out around Westmoreland. He asked for Tucson folks to share and to call if they've seen this card.

@abruzos Weird, was just reading about him this morning!

@lingscape Another picture from the @lingscape map for Tucson. This bilingual outlines Covid-19 protocols and is found on the door of a hair salon in south 12th. Interestingly, #4 asks people with allergies to stay home (but only in Spanish).

What a wonderful surprise to open up the @latimes #Latinx Files newsletter by @fidmart85 which I look forward to reading every week— and seeing my own book advertised there, with a blurb from the one and only @GustavoArellano !

TODAY is the day, 3:30 pm Eastern #OAH22! K-12 and higher ed faculty welcome. Spanish "fluency" not required! (and what is fluency anyway? My sociolinguist colaboradora @DraCHolguinM will explode your brain on this question, as she's exploded mine for the past 8 years)

Congratulations to Michelle, a co-founders of the Language Capital Project!
