What Is Language Justice? Language Justice includes the idea that everyone has the right to communicate, to understand and to be understood in the language(s) in which we feel most comfortable. Language justice also includes the shared commitment to creating bilingual and multilingual spaces where no language dominates over any other. More about Language Justice at antenalosangeles.org!
Who is Antena Los Ángeles? Antena Los Ángeles is a collective dedicated to language justice advocacy and organizing in Los Ángeles. We work with individuals and groups to develop bilingual and multilingual spaces, using as our primary tools interpretation, translation, consulting, and education to expand the capacity to create spaces where everyone can participate fully. We believe that language justice is part of social justice.
