Reviews

This important and inspirational volume brings hope and justice to K-12 schools. It deepens the understanding of translanguaging pedagogies towards transformative translanguaging spaces for bilingual students. The book rompe fronteras y muros sin miedo and stays true to the academic, linguistic, and political origins and purposes of the translanguaging movement in the field. * Juan A. Freire, Brigham Young University, USA * Transformative Translanguaging Espacios reminds us that Latinx communities must insist on politicizing our translanguaging practices on our own terms, and reject decades of politicization experienced via reductive and harmful language policies and practices. The authors - scholars and maestrxs - inspire us to move forward with the political and radical spirit of translanguaging scholarship toward consequential learning possibilities, y sin miedo! * Danny C. Martinez University of California, Davis, USA * A counternarrative to dominant conceptualizations of bilingualism that pathologize the complex and dynamic language practices of racialized bi/multilingual communities, Transformative Translanguaging Espacios centers the perspective of language as performed by diverse Latinx bilingual students and their teachers. The editors and authors clearly and cogently articulate the affordances of translanguaging pedagogy as a transformative tool for anti-racist work in education in this accessible, engaging, and thought-provoking volume. * Mileidis Gort, University of Colorado Boulder, USA * This edited volume helps hone translanguaging as a theory of language use by documenting and delineating its transformative potential. Furthermore, it makes an important contribution to teaching practice by looking at how translanguaging pedagogies can create and sustain humanizing and just classrooms. -- Mark B. Pacheco, University of Florida, USA * Language and Education, 2022 *
