Rezension
«This book ruptures the commonsensical epistemologies of oppression, by deploying a decolonizing understanding of language as a necessary emancipatory condition of transgression and social transformation. In deconstructing the linguistic colonization of the media as an imperative of racialized capitalism, the authors rightly anchor their analysis to both social agency and political resistance. By so doing, they fluidly connect theory to the lived histories of disenfranchised populations, providing a new language for the reinvention of academic knowledge and the creation of new spaces of possibility for democratic life, within the classroom and beyond.» (Antonia Darder, Leavey Presidential Endowed Chair, Loyola Marymount University, Los Angeles)
«Joao and Ricardo Rosa have produced a compelling read for those interested in the intersection of language, media, and pedagogy. They bring a refreshing outlook into the movement with their deft combination of critical pedagogy and critical discourse analysis.» (James Paul Gee, Mary Lou Fulton Presidential Professor of Literacy Studies, Arizona State University)
