Overcoming the Gentrification of Dual Language, Bilingual and Immersion Education Reviews

This book is a treasure of scholarly arguments by brilliant scholars who powerfully reject the gentrification of bilingual education theories in order to build culturally and linguistically responsive policies and practices that ideologically and pedagogically resist racialized bilingual classrooms and communities. * Cristina Alfaro, San Diego State University, USA *
This important book is a cautionary tale about how the best of intentions can be undermined when careful attention isn't paid to the equity challenges in dual language programs. Dual language educators would be wise to take the lessons presented here to heart and plan their programs accordingly. * Patricia C. Gandara, University of California, Los Angeles, USA *
