<p style="background:white"><span style="font-size:11.5pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#201F1E">Description: This webinar describes why literacy educators must cultivate mindfulness about race and interracial communication when teaching reading, writing,
speaking, listening, and visually representing. The webinar will focus on how educators can use their racial literacy to develop mindfulness about online language arts instructional material, diverse assessment practices, and codemeshing as a means to teach
standard academic literacies to diverse students.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

Code Switching, and African American Literacy (Parlor Press, 2018); The Routledge Reader of African American Rhetoric (Routledge, 2018); Code Meshing as World English: Policy, Pedagogy, Performance (NCTE 2011) and Your Average Nigga: Performing Race, Literacy,

performance studies, communication, socialinguistics, writing, gender, and African American Studies. He is perhaps best known for his scholarship on the concept of code-meshing as an alternative to code-switching as it is used in by educators to teach language.
Code-meshing advances that writers and speakers should use their home linguistic backgrounds to communicate, particularly in high stakes communication situations.</span></i><span style="font-size:11.5pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#201F1E"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
