New College seeks a Sessional Lecturer from September 1, 2023 - April 30, 2024 to teach BOTH of the following integrated courses:
**NEW102H1F - EXPLORING MULTILINGUAL TORONTO (Fall Term)**

**NEW102H1F** - How does language connect and divide people, places and communities? This course considers how interactions between people in Toronto are shaped by language as well as history, economy, architecture and urban landscapes. Students engage with the city both in and out of class to think about a range of questions linked to gender and sexuality, indigeneity, migration, race, ethnicity, and public/private space.

**NEW112H1S - LANGUAGE FREEDOM AND POWER (Winter Term)**

**NEW112H1S** - How do we imagine a balance between the need for communication, freedom of expression, and protection for marginalized groups? This course considers how language shapes and is shaped by the relations of power not only in such sites as colonies, nations and institutions, but also in popular culture and how we communicate online. It explores the key role of language in activism and youth cultures and allows students to focus on an issue of particular interest.
