Language, Identity and Choice: Raising Bilingual Children in a
Global Society provides scholarly insight into how foreign language
acquisition influences an individual's understanding of identity
within the African American family. Rooted in sociolinguistic,
communication, and bilingual theoretical perspectives, Kami J.
Anderson describes how foreign language acquisition, development,
and use shape how Africans and African Americans describe and
proscribe their identity and, in turn, the identity of the family.
Language, Identiy, and Choice looks specifically at how family
language choices, in particular choosing to be bilingual, affect
family communication and perception of identity from people outside
of the family. Anderson combines both extensive research and her
personal experience of being bilingual to challenge the existing
notions of what it means to be Black when personal experiences with
race and ethnicity extend beyond the boundaries of the native
country or culture.
