  6. Today also made me reflect on our article, the 'limits of #translingualism':

    apples.journal.fi/article/view

    I attended a UK academic webinar on 'decolonising the university and linguistic diversity' and couldn't help feeling how introspective and conservative it was - no mention of deep colonial structures (such as capitalism), powers (eg prejudice), political mechanisms (eg visas, brexit, fees), agencies (the choices we make) or how change is actioned beyond being 'reflexive'

  11. Noticing v. anecdotally - in #academia - how quickly 'n often monoligual speakers of English in my #UK context go on the defensive (in their tone of voice - a mix of sarcasm/affront) when presented with non-English sources and references: eg. 'would be nice to have an English plug-in for that!' or 'not all of us are multilingual' and 'I don't feel this is a very inclusive space'.
