Promoting and Supporting the Teaching and Study of World Languages, Literatures and Cultures in Rhode Island

Upcoming events

We at RIFLA promote language. We understand that language has power and should be used to unify and not to attack or marginalize. We also believe that the racial and ethnic diversity of the United States is a force that does not weaken but instead enriches us as a country. We condemn the use of hateful language and violence against any person or community based on race or ethnicity and stand in solidarity with all victims of hate crimes and bigotry.

Many Thanks to our 2021 Virtual Conference Sponsors!!
