Indigenous Language Politics in the Schoolroom by Mneesha Gellman

Northtown Books

Friday, July 14 at 7 p.m., we welcome Mneesha Gellman to talk about her book Indigenous Language Politics in the Schoolroom.

Public school classrooms around the world have the power to shape and transform youth culture and identity. In this book, Mneesha Gellman examines how Indigenous high school students resist assimilation and assert their identities through access to Indigenous language classes in public schools. Drawing on ethnographic accounts, qualitative interviews, focus groups, and surveys, Gellman’s fieldwork examines and compares the experiences of students in Yurok language courses in Northern California and Zapotec courses in Oaxaca, Mexico.
