A whole day of community workshop with @WFarahslt. Exhausting but fulfilling work. Lesson learned: reject SLT research that doesn’t consider mental health & language on minoritized without racism and intergenerational racial trauma!

Honoured to collaborate with the incredible Vietnamese team as a member from Multilingual Families Lab. We had 8 sessions with them to learn the cultures and language together. Laughter, camaraderie, and meaningful connections have made this journey unforgettable. @MCHBAlberta

So much of the tension that we see, particularly in SLT, is because of this view of language . A purely cognitive milestone based linear way of language will always create a deficit view.
When language is thought to be a "skill" that anyone can acquire with hard work, this will always justify linguistic discrimination. (Because certain people never tried "hard enough").
