Ashley Moore will present “'I didn’t see being gay as an experience that could unfold in Arabic': Homophobia, linguacultural ideologies, and coloniality in the emergence of linguistic dissociation among some queer plurilinguals" as part of the Center for Language Acquisition Invited Speaker Series.

Moore is an assistant professor in the Department of Curriculum, Teaching and Learning at the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education. He is a critical applied linguist whose scholarship broadly aims at grasping the effects of power on the linguistic trajectories of plurilingual people, especially those belonging to equity-deserving groups.
