Jonathan Rosa

Linguistic and Sociocultural Anthropologist

Jonathan Rosa is an Associate Professor in the Graduate School of Education, Center for Comparative Studies in Race and Ethnicity, and, by courtesy, Departments of Anthropology, Linguistics, and Comparative Literature at Stanford University. His research examines how race and language are jointly defined, experienced, and transformed across distinctive historical, geopolitical, and institutional contexts. He collaborates with schools and communities to understand these phenomena and challenge the forms of vulnerability to which they correspond. This community-based approach reflects a commitment to engaged scholarship which seeks to challenge structures of subjugation and contribute to the creation of collective well-being.
