Reviews

Adam Schwartz offers a groundbreaking reflection on how Whiteness and White supremacy have shaped his experiences as a student and teacher of Spanish. Part critical autoethnography, part analysis of race and racism in Spanish language education, Spanish so White invites readers to engage with antiracist scholarship in examining their own practices and to participate in a much-needed rethinking of how Spanish is taught in US schools. * Jennifer Leeman, George Mason University, USA *
