Description

I really want to say "this goes without saying" about many of the things I'm saying to you today. But maybe it does not.
Racism is not welcome here.
Thank you for listening to today's episode.
And as maker of the Fluent Show, I can also tell you that every person who works on the team stands behind this message. Please read Lindsay's very well-written perspective here (https://www.lindsaydoeslanguages.com/lets-talk-about-racism/).
Here are 4 wonderful Fluent Show guests who have represented the voices of black language learners.
Please read more about them and how impressive they are. There are TWO bilingual interviews in here:
?? https://www.fluent.show/guests/nicole - Nicole Miles
?? https://www.fluent.show/guests/khady - Khady Ndoye (bilingual episode French/English)
?? https://www.fluent.show/guests/shahidah - Ann Shahidah (bilingual episode German/English)
?? https://www.fluent.show/guests/chenelle Chenelle Patrice Hancock
I'm proud that they came and spent time with me on the show. I know my work isn't done and I'll continue to make it a priority to invite guests from ALL backgrounds.

Learn a Language...Or Maybe Three! The Fluent Show is on a mission to help you get excited about language learning. We learn languages every day in our lives, and have learnt over 15 different languages between us. We share stories, news, tips, and ideas that will make you fluent...eventually. Subscribe to the show today to get your regular dose of Fluent love. ? Check out the Fluent Language courses (https://www.fluentlanguage.co.uk/my-courses) It is worth clarifying that we actively want to support anti-racism and will highlight and advocate for the equality of all. Language learning means committing to tolerance of other world views, and this open mind is a core value for me. This topic deserves well considered words so here are the best Kerstin managed to put together. (https://www.fluent.show/blacklivesmatter)
