Del 'binding' lingüístico como concepto. Siendo #neuroqueer y #enby , siento que el lenguaje 'normativo' me oprime. Apenas estoy logrando acceder a formas de expresión que me permitan ser.

Este tipo de referencias y publicaciones son vitales, aunque la sociedad llegue tarde...

In the chaos of prepping for my qualifying exams I only checked my dept. mailbox for the first time all semester on Tues. Guess what I found? A hard copy of Redoing Linguistic Worlds! Feels surreal to think I have a chapter published in a Real Live Academic volume 😌

🚨 Publication Alert 🚨 The nonbinary minority stress and resilience scales are out now!! Please share with any researchers who may find these scales useful. The scales and the preprint of the article can be accessed on our lab website! empowermentlab.wordpress.com/measures/

I try to post here only when I can share something that pushes back against the problems that pushed me to relocate in the first place. Here's a link to some action points for L2 teachers hoping to breach the cisheteronormativity of their classrooms: drive.google.com/file/d/1hb72Ye…

Eric & I just wrapped up w/ the inimitable @VocalFriesPod (🌵 @meganfigueroa.bsky.social 🏜 & Carrie Gillon). We talked #RedoingLinguisticWorlds , how language & gender aren't things, that you can just do them if & how you want (or not), & what we're calling BS on lately. Can't wait to share!

Kris Knisely showing how knowledge and practices emerging from trans linguacultures require our urgent attention AND connect to the most exciting intellectual developments in applied linguistics today. If you missed the live plenary, do yourself a favour and watch the recording!

Happening today! (1pm EST Find your time: timeanddate.com/worldclock/fix…)

Please reach out if you want to contribute! Deadline 1 May 2024. Accepting both articles and commentaries in honor of Jon Henner .

Finally out in its correct form! Why do so many queer/trans learners come to understand their L2 classrooms as spaces of compulsory cisheteronormativity? What's necessary for them (and us!) to breach that? And what becomes possible when we do? doi.org/10.1080/136700…

So happy to share the fruits of this collaboration into LGBTQ+ agency in language classrooms!
