Exploring the roles of students' pluralistic linguistic and transnational identities at the university level, this book offers a novel approach to translanguaging by highlighting students' perspectives, voices, and agency as integral to the subject. Providing an original reconsideration of the impact of translanguaging, this book examines both transnationality and translinguality as ubiquitous phenomena that affect students' lives. Demonstrating that students are the experts of their own language practices, experiences, and identities, the authors argue that a proactive translingual pedagogy is more than an openness to students' spontaneous language variations. Rather, this proactive approach requires students and instructors to think about students' holistic communicative repertoire, and how it relates to their writing. Robinson, Hall, and Navarro address students' complex negotiations and performative responses to the linguistic identities imposed upon them because of their skin color, educational background, perceived geographical origin, immigration status, and the many other cues used to "minoritize" them. Drawing on multiple disciplinary discourses of language and identity, and considering the translingual practices and transnational experiences of both U.S. resident and international students, this volume provides a nuanced analysis of students' own perspectives and self-examinations of their complex identities. By introducing and addressing the voices and self-reflections of undergraduate and graduate students, the authors shine a light on translingual and transnational identities and positionalities in order to promote and implement inclusive and effective pedagogies. This book offers a unique yet essential perspective on translinguality and transnationality, and is relevant to instructors in writing and language classrooms; to administrators of writing programs and international student support programs; and to graduate students and scholars in language education, second language writing, applied linguistics, and literacy studies.

As parents, we make every effort keeping our children safe from harm. The love we feel toward each child is unlike any love we have ever felt. We want the best for him/her and would do anything in our power to help each child succeed in life. What if, while believing we were making every effort in keeping our child safe and healthy, we were actually placing him/her at risk of being harmed? What if, the harm was caused by the very substance that was created to protect our child? In 1991, at the age of 22 months, Heather Moore, became that 1, out of every 110,000 children, who experienced a severe reaction to the DPT vaccination. Strength of Character, Is the compelling story of a mother and daughter's journey, spanning over17 years, through the many hardships and triumphs following that terrifying reaction. Written in a two perspective point of view, full of raw emotion and inspiration, readers will discover what life was like for Heather, while growing up and how a mother would not give up on the daughter she loves, along with not giving up in her own life.

Lineage is beyond words. Most of its understanding is actually in the unspoken. The rituals, traditions, beliefs, systems, emotions and language we have accepted for centuries without question. These agreements, as Don Miguel Ruiz would call them, that have permeated our lives without knowing.\nBut the women whose stories follow these pages began to ask some questions. 
Is there another way? 
Is there more than meets the eye? 
Do I have to hold the same shame those who have come before me have felt or can I release that? 
What do I want to pass down to others? 
Is it possible to carry the wisdom without the pain?\nThis book invited me to spaces within myself that I didn’t know existed. To hidden places where emotions lay buried waiting for the day when I felt brave enough to meet them with love and compassion. This book invites us all to do just that.
