Graduate Hour & Guest Lecture with Jonathan Rosa, Ph.D. A co-sponsored talk by the Anthropology Department Discourse Lab and the Language, Literacy, and Learning Collaborative (LLLC) in the School of Education and Information Studies.

Jonathan Rosa is an Associate Professor in the Graduate School of Education, Center for Comparative Studies in Race and Ethnicity, and, by courtesy, Departments of Anthropology, Linguistics, and Comparative Literature at Stanford University. Dr. Rosa is also the Director of Stanford’s Program in Chicanx-Latinx Studies and Co-Director of the Center for Global Ethnography. His research examines the co-naturalization of language and race as critical features of modern governance. Specifically, he tracks colonially structured interrelations among racial marginalization, linguistic stigmatization, and institutional inequity. Dr. Rosa collaborates with local communities to investigate these phenomena, develop tools for understanding, and challenge the forms of disparity to which they correspond.
