Spurred in part by violent conflict and natural disaster, the surge in global migration calls for renewed attention to the central role of language in everyday (in)securitization. In this brief response, I draw on my work in the Middle East and among Arabic-speaking populations in the United States to offer some illustration of the instantiation of global, macro-processes of (in)securitization and surveillance in the everyday micro-practices of schooling-issues that are possible to "see" when language policy is the site of inquiry. In centring everyday communicative practice, sociolinguistics provides a distinctive entry point for examining the lived experience of this (in)securitization, by illuminating pervasive and mundane micro-processes within the "extraordinary" and routinized social interactions of everyday schooling
