Algarabía Language Co-op is excited to announce that we are offering virtual Spanish classes this Summer that will start on June 14th, 2025! Spanish for Social Justice courses are offered by Algarabía Language Co-op in partnership with The People’s Forum. We offer courses at all levels of fluency to those interested in topics of social justice, politics, and culture. To better serve our community, we offer two tracks for your convenience: - BIPOC-only track, designed exclusively for Black, Indigenous, and People of Color, and - Open-to-All track, which welcomes participants of all backgrounds, including BIPOC folks. We offer six levels of Spanish courses for social justice learners. All classes follow the same curriculum across both tracks. Through weekly social justice themes and using a communicative and popular education approach, participants will improve their Spanish skills and critically engage with various cultural productions centered around the lived experiences of working-class people of Indigenous and African descent on the continent. These courses are designed for folks at different levels of fluency in their productive (speaking, writing) and receptive (listening and reading) skills. Special focus will be given to learning vocabulary and community organizing terminology relevant to contemporary social movements in New York City (Lenapehoking), one of the largest and most diverse Spanish-speaking cities in the world, and the rest of Turtle Island and Abya Yala.
