Other People's English: Code-Meshing, Code-… par Vershawn Ashanti Young
I really enjoyed this book as it opened my eyes to how code-meshing is an extremely important and undervalued teaching method for students who speak different languages and dialects that differ even the slightest bit from Standard English. The prejudices and blatant racism that impact each students ability and confidence to learn was also astounding to read about, and has definitely impacted me as a person.
