Explicit discussions of race and racial identity have traditionally been omitted from Spanish language education in the US, particularly in curricula designed for imagined native speakers of English. This de-racialization of Spanish language learning has resulted in the perpetuation of institutional racisms and missed opportunities to engage in productive conversations about the ways in which race and power are enacted through language. Spanish So White is a book written specifically for secondary and post-secondary teachers who identify as White and second language learners of Spanish. Its primary goal is to support the development of language education that centers a racially dynamic Spanish-speaking world and challenges interpersonal and institutional forms of racism.
Author Adam Schwartz, himself a White Spanish-language learner and teacher, shares personal stories of his socialization into Whiteness and Spanish-English bilingualism. He invites readers to engage with the work of reconciling the privileges they may also hold as White Spanish-language learners and teachers.
In addition to the main text, the book offers additional resources for teachers, including lesson plans, discussion questions, and reflection prompts. These resources are designed to facilitate meaningful classroom discussions and promote critical thinking about race and language.
