Awareness of my unwitting role as a specialist in Fairclough's terms caused me to revisit my actions in the course of developing testing procedures and materials for Arapaho language classes in a local school district. I realize now that I could and would have supported the Arapaho teachers' positions more forcefully, had I been more aware at the time that their suggestions were attempts to maintain an Arapaho ideology and practice in the face of a hegemonizing process.
