E01 Keeping Out Grendel: Language and Diversity in the 21st Century

In our pilot episode we tackle the payoffs and pushback around centering language and diversity in our classrooms and communities. “In the World” unpacks the U.S. English Only Movement, its roots in Western literature, and its uncomfortable consequences at Duke University’s medical school. In “On the Page” we talk with Dr. Laura Gonzales about her new book Sites of Translation. And for “In the Class,” Stanford sophomore Adamari Alamillo shares her research on linguistic profiling.
