Season 2, Episode 1: Beginning Again

Season 2 of ESL for Equality opens with a clear-eyed look at the mounting policy rollbacks targeting immigrants, refugees, trans communities, and multilingual learners. Host Hannah Joos explores the far-reaching consequences of recent executive orders, from the dismantling of the U.S. Refugee Admissions Program to the erosion of language access protections and gender-affirming care. As headlines blur and the weight of the news deepens, this episode offers space to reflect, recalibrate, and resist. It’s a call to educators, advocates, and community members to stay engaged, support one another, and fight for a future rooted in justice, voice, and belonging.
