Uplift

Uplift is more than a book - it is a movement of language, resilience, and rising voices. This powerful collection of scholarly articles explores how the English language becomes a source of inner strength, global connection, and personal transformation for young people navigating a complex and changing world. Across seven chapters, written using the IMRaD academic structure, Uplift brings together deeply insightful research that reveals the emotional, intellectual, and activist dimensions of learning and using English. Each chapter reflects a unique angle on how youth today are not only learning a language but finding themselves within it. From emotional healing and self-confidence to activism and social justice, these articles serve as both academic contributions and human stories. In an age where language can be a wall or a bridge, Uplift highlights how English, when accessible and inclusive, becomes a tool for improvement.
