This book is a powerful narrative of how six women experienced
their lives alongside their desire to overcome the challenging and
empowering nature of the English language. The volume shares who
they are as transnational and mobile women living in the midst of
linguistic privilege and marginalization. It is one outcome of a
research project and the lived experiences which surround and
influence (and were influenced by) it. The author documents how she
and her research partners began studying what had drawn them to US
TESOL programs, and how English was and is a symbol of power and
privilege, a symbol of educational access and a pursuit of equity,
yet, at times, is also a symbol of linguistic marginalization.
