Homebound: Back to the Motherland & Decolonizing Language w/ Sunisa Nuonsy

Sunisa Nuonsy is Immigrant and refugee from Laos. She’s been an educator for over a decade and is researching about ways to approach for language learners. She looks at language with a decolonial approach. Her emphasis is to help immigrants with a bi/multilingual tools to affirm that humans are sophisticated and can find comfort in the liminal spaces. She notes that there is no standard language and this idea stems from a deficit mindset. Reconnecting to back to the Motherland, Sunisa, shares with us what home feels like for her.
