Language Manifesto
As I transform into a social justice educator, I am becoming more aware of
the importance of language throughout this journey. Language comes
through many methodologies, including but not limited to body language,
drawings, gestures, and writing. Therefore, it is essential for me as an
educator to provide my students with outlets that embody a multitude of
various language archetypes. By doing so, I aim to interrupt the systematic
cycle of oppression and provide equitable access to education. I hope to be
conscious of the way language is used in my classroom by first getting to
know my students, their cultures, and their needs. Through day-to-day
conversation, I hope to gain understanding of the role language plays in their
lives so I can then reflect on my teaching methods and our the classroom
culture I will aim to provide.
MY PROMISE TO YOU
Love,
Ms. Bravo
