ABSTRACT
Across a global community of scholars striving to improve the Policy, Perspectives, Preparation, and Practice of excellent content teaching for multilingual students and their teachers, the authors call for heightened attention to issues of equity beyond language and content instruction. The negative discourses that undermine the humanity and rights of those who have been driven from their homes due to violence and/or poverty or growing crises resulting from the environmental disasters being caused by climate change are problematic and unfortunately growing in frequency and strength across multiple national contexts. The authors have the opportunity to grow together and break down unnecessary intellectual and national boundaries to embrace the possibilities of pluralistic success for their multilingual students and their teachers, as well as their families and communities. In the authors commitments to multilingual learners and their teachers, they also see an opportunity to grow possibilities for multilingualism to play a larger role in research dissemination across the globe.
