About this listen
Welcome to Talking to Grandma, a weekly podcast about raising and teaching bilingual and multilingual kids. Whether you’re a parent, grandparent, teacher, or just someone who cares about language and culture, this podcast is for you. Together with our guests, we’ll explore how to support bilingualism in ways that affirm identity and strengthen community.
In this episode of Talking to Grandma, co-host Jenn Pressman welcomes friend of Bilingual Generation, Dr. Jonnia Torres Carolan, a bilingual mom, linguist, and community advocate from Denver.
Jonnia shares her powerful family story of both language loss and preservation. Jonnia offers a heartfelt look at the joys, challenges, and daily decisions that come with bilingual parenting. She also brings insights from her doctoral research and her work with the Hidatsa community on language revitalization, showing how language is more than words to preserve, but relationships to honor and ways of seeing the world we can’t afford to lose.
