@WebsCorneille @HaitianProgram A pleasure, Websder. It's an important project in itself, about linguistic/cultural diversity and, especially in these times, about the powers of welcome, learning, understanding, and friendship.

'A nine year old girl not of Haitian descent had come nearly 60 miles with her parents to be able to communicate with her new neighbours.' Powerful stuff in this piece about a Haitian Creole language and culture programme @WebsCorneille @HaitianProgram
Websder Corneille@WebsCorneille

My story on the @HaitianProgram appeared in the January 25 printed edition of the prestigious U.S. #LanguageMagazine. The program aims to advocate for linguistic human rights, cultural awareness while exploring pathways to strengthen ties between Creole communities & the world.

If you can sing mass karaoke in different languages, you have nothing to fear in your oral exams. Students, it made us happy to see you happy at last night's biggest ever (200) @UofGSMLC Christmas event. Thanks for the beautiful venue to staff @GUUnion & our own Teresa Newman

An inspiring set of 10 different Impact projects from @UofGSMLC researchers today, shared with a full room of staff & PGRs. Also interesting relationally, working not only as colleagues but as people, with values & expertise, who want to make a difference in areas they care about

I was stuck for a musical intro to today's lecture on culture & national histories. Last night's excellent @tenementals gig introduced me to this song written 1933 in German in a concentration camp, a Republican Spanish Civil War anthem, still circulating youtube.com/watch?v=FaCKKM…

Proud of students in @UofGSMLC and the Glasgow Erasmus Student Network putting on a Languages Cafe 6-9pm Monday 18 November (SMLC students, see email for details). Good opportunity to use languages, especially ahead of speaking exams, and meet people.
