In this forum article, we seek to contribute to the discussion initiated by Kubota (in the article entitled ‘Confronting epistemological racism, decolonizing scholarly knowledge: race and gender in applied linguistics’) on how to confront epistemological racism and to decolonize scholarly knowledge. We begin by endorsing Kubota’s three recommendations on how to achieve such goals, as we feel they are an important step to challenge the abyssal line that exists between knowledges that are considered scientific and universal and those that are regarded as peripheral. We then propose a fourth suggestion that we feel is important to complement what is put forth by Kubota: that scholars expose their own loci of enunciation (as well as that of others) in order to localize knowledges that are often taken as global and all-encompassing. By doing so, we argue, academics in applied linguistics and other fields are able to acknowledge the limits of their claims and to present their research in ways that can shift the universality of white Eurocentric knowledge.

宣泄的轨迹是对抗认识论的种族主义和非学术知识化的一种方式

在这个论坛文章中，我们寻求为Kubota发起的关于如何面对认识论种族主义和学术知识非殖民化的讨论做出贡献（在题为``面对认识论种族主义，非殖民化学术知识：应用语言学中的种族和性别''）。首先，我们赞同久保田提出的有关如何实现这些目标的三项建议，因为我们认为这是挑战科学和普世知识与外围知识之间存在的深渊界限的重要一步。然后，我们提出第四条建议，我们认为这对补充久保田提出的观点很重要：学者们揭露自己的口述位点（以及其他口述位点），以便定位通常被认为是全球性和全民性的知识。包围。通过这样做，
