Someone gave me this flyer when I was at the La Cosecha dual language conference. The job position doesn’t look bad. Pass the word out. docs.google.com/file/d/1yfCZ...

I get this question a lot based on my last name, my DLBE work, and having been the first one to propose critical/sociopolitical consciousness as a DLBE programmatic goal with my dissertation back in 2014. But no, we’re not related, only intellectually 😄
