eBook
Enacting and Envisioning Decolonial Forces while Sustaining Indigenous Language
2021
Overview
Through the presentation of visual and textual insights, this
book chronicles the experiences of Quechuan bilingual college
students, who strive to maintain their ethnolinguistic identity
while succeeding in Spanish-centric curricula. The book merges
decolonial theory and participatory action research in pursuit of
mobilizing Indigenous languages such as Quechua and depicts the
ways in which these Andean college students deal with limited
opportunities for Quechua-Spanish bilingual practices. It provides
an overview of their collective efforts to mobilize Quechua in
higher education, efforts which will help all who read it
understand the maintenance of the Quechua language beginning at the
grassroots level. The author advocates for engaging language
researchers in critical collective forces at the core of conditions
which promote Quechua in higher education, a collective effort
which must reflect decolonial, non-Eurocentric, non-fundamentalist
Indigenous concepts in combination with action-oriented cultural
wealth for the benefit of minoritized languages and peoples.
