In this AGBU WebTalk, Dr. Shushan Karapetian, a linguist and scholar of language education, illuminates the challenges facing heritage language speakers in diasporic environments.

In this AGBU WebTalk, Dr. Karapetian argues that by understanding and accepting the limitations of heritage language development in the diaspora, we can move toward more effective systems of language transmission and education for the next generation.
