Announcement
Hi all, as you know, we reached our deadline for proposal submission on May 30, and we have received many awesome proposals. We thank you for that. 😁

​However, due to the institutional complications caused by COVID-19, the TexLER Committee has decided to hold the conference #virtually on Friday, October 2, 2020. In changing the conference format, we also reached a decision to extend the call for proposals until June 21st. 

We hope this is a fair decision. We look forward to the first ever virtual TexLER conference and the prospect of making it rock. Please spread the words and if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact us.

Plenary Speakers for TexLER 2019! 

Lilliana Patricia Saldaña is a Chicana activist scholar raised in San Antonio’s Southside. Saldaña attended Boston University where she earned her bachelor’s degree in English and International Relations, with a concentration in Latin American Studies and a minor in Journalism in 1998. Shortly after completing her studies, Saldaña worked at a dual-language school in San Antonio’s Westside and earned a master’s degree in Bicultural-Bilingual Studies from the University of Texas at San Antonio in 2002. During her undergraduate and graduate studies, she was involved in numerous campus-activist projects and worked in community settings, synthesizing her passion for research and social change. As a doctoral student at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, Saldaña worked with Latina/o families to establish Nuestro Mundo, the first dual-language school in the city, and Formando Lazos, community development project with Latina immigrant mothers. She earned a doctoral degree in Human Development and Family Studies, with a minor in Chicana/o families, schools, and communities, from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 2010. Her dissertation--“¡De mi barrio no me voy!: The identity and consciousness of Mexican American teachers at a dual-language school--examines the life histories of Raza teachers and the ways in which they transform, negotiate and reproduce the culture of schooling in San Antonio, Texas.
