Shifting from Labels and Languages to People
In this article, we explore how translanguaging has been developed, applied, challenged, and proliferated within TESOL Quarterly . Drawing on both scholarship published in the journal and seminal research in the field, we first describe the development of translanguaging, namely, how it came to prominence and how it has drawn attention to the ideological nature of language and language in education. Next, we delve into how scholars have taken up …
Youth Podcasting Sonic Heteroglossia
The multimedia practices and translingual writing of racialized bilingual students are growing areas of research. This article addresses the question: How do racialized bilingual students collaboratively engage in authorial choices to tell translingual stories during a time of heightened anti‐Latinx/e‐sentiment? Using the analytic frames of heteroglossia and translanguaging, this article draws on data from a yearlong ethnographic study of an ethn…
Al Sonido del Huehuetl”
Despite growing Indigenous Latine/x immigrant populations, Indigenous Latine/x parents' and families' diverse forms of involvement across schools and communities continue to be absent from greater discourses in education. This article explores an Indigenous Quechua and Mexican family's perspectives on multilingualism, culture, learning, and community engagement through danza azteca, a traditional Mesoamerican dance practice. This study asks, acco…
Delinking to Learn From Youth Expressive Practitioners of the Everyday
Positions, positionality, and relationality in educational research
In this paper, we provide a critical genealogy of position statements and take up the questions of why positionality and position statements have become a presence in the field of qualitative education research, what these statements do and don't do, and how relationality may serve purposes of mutuality that reach beyond an individual's social locations. Using content analysis of fifty position statements found in high-impact educational research…
Case Studies of Effective Learning Climates for Civic Reasoning and Discussion
While the national media continues to highlight the tensions of cultural politics in education, there is a need for young people and educators to be equipped for the daunting local, national, and global challenges that mark their everyday lives. Many educators and young people alike are interested in engaging youth in civic reasoning and discourse that prepares them to meet those many challenges. This article highlights applications of civic reas…
Guitarras on the Rise
Music remains a fundamental aspect of sociocultural traditions and environments. In this article, I explore a sierreño band of translingual youth artists and their appropriation of norteño music in their designing of new forms of expression. Employing the concept of communities of practice, I examine three youth musicians’ experiences as members of a grupo sierreño (sierreño band) to highlight the nature of learning, sharing, and collaborative cu…

‘Juntos Somos Fuertes’
Changing demography in the Southwest USA has shifted the racial compositions of many neighborhoods that were once predominantly African American to majority Latinx immigrant communities (Orfield and Frankenberg 2014). Today, it’s common for these two youth communities to learn side-by-side in urban and suburban classrooms where they are often positioned to share each other’s cultural practices (Martinez 2017). However, language and literacy resea…
Uplifting Multiracial and Translingual Childhoods in the Envisioning of Anti-Racist Schooling
As mothers and education professors, we weave these two identities to reflect on the anti-racist K–12 schooling we envision and work toward for all children, including our own multilingual, multi-ethnic, and multi-racial children. We begin this article with a brief introduction to who we are as mothers, then shift to problematizing dominant school curricula and centering multiraciality and multilingualism as important elements in the lives of chi…
Literacies of Refuge
This article explores how a secondary ethnic studies course leveraged immigrant families’ literacies rooted in the Mexican spiritual ritual of Las Posadas for in-school literacy instruction and to engage in community-responsive grassroots processions as social protest. Using ethnographic and participatory design research, the authors—one a university researcher and the other an ethnic studies teacher—examine the literacy practices of a long-stand…
Writing Oneself Into the Curriculum
The writing of transnational youth has continued to emerge as a promising area of research in writing and literacy studies, and yet despite the breadth of this work, few studies have examined transnational students’ writing about social and racial justice. Drawing on theoretical contributions of coloniality, this article highlights the experiences of one immigrant adolescent’s participation in a secondary ethnic studies course in California. In t…
Translingual Youth Podcasts as Acoustic Allies
U.S. Latinx youth from immigrant backgrounds bring to schools their transnational literacies, complex lived experiences of marginalization and resistance, and politicized translanguaging practices that are seldom recognized in classrooms. This article examines U.S. Latinx bilingual youth who participated in a podcast project within a Chicanx/Latinx Studies high school course that mobilized their bilingualism for literacy instruction. This ethnogr…
Got Libros
This article explores how a local community came to value a Latinx bookstore as a supplementary knowledge space for Latinx history, literature, and culture. Findings detail how the bookstore served as a catalyst for a heterogeneous group of Latinx families and educators to (1) access empowering reflections of Latinx histories that were not found in traditional K-12 school curricula and (2) build alternative libraries in homes and classrooms that …
“Los Músicos”
In this research article, Cati V. de los Ríos examines US-Mexican transnational youths' engagement with the Mexican musical genre corridos, border folk ballads, and its subgenre, narcocorridos, folk ballads that illuminate elements of the drug trade and often glamorize drug cartels. She draws from ethnographic methods to present empirical knowledge of four young musicians' critical readings of these genres and their place-making and community-bin…
Upending Colonial Practices
This article briefly reviews the colonial roots of English education in the United States and outlines current practices that perpetuate harm in the lives of students of color in K-12 schools. Through an examination of theoretical scholarship and empirical research related to repairing the harm invoked by colonizing English education practices, the authors collectively build on Winn's (2013) call for researchers to imagine and engage in practices…
Toward a Corridista Consciousness
This article examines instances of a U.S.–Mexican transnational youth honing his critical translingual literacy skills through his engagement with corridos, Mexican balladry in Spanish that often emphasizes injustice and border strife. The author relies on ethnographic classroom observations, the student's journals, and semistructured interviews to provide a glimpse into the complexities and sophistication of the bilingual youth's everyday langua…
Picturing Ethnic Studies
This study uses photovoice to examine the ways in which Chicanx youths hone their critical and multimodal literacy skills in a secondary ethnic studies course. While the institutionalization of secondary ethnic studies courses swiftly expands in school districts across the United States, more research is necessary to understand the nature of these courses. This inquiry examines student photovoice compositions, participant observations, and in‐dep…
Translanguaging, Coloniality, and English Classrooms
While current research focuses on the marginalization and educational crises of students classified as English language learners—whom we identify as emergent bilinguals (García & Kleifgen, 2010)—this article highlights some of the contexts for learning that help these students thrive academically, culturally, and socially in two urban English classrooms. We explore the concept of translanguaging (García, 2009a; García & Li Wei, 2014) through the …
