The linguistic hegemony of the English language presents challenges to the global community that is largely multilingual. The linguistic hegemony of the English language is enabled by the perception that English serves as the lingua franca for education, trade, and employment, and is an essential skill for anyone wanting to succeed professionally or academically in the 21st century. The idea that English offers such enormous opportunities presents a challenge to other languages, cultures, and identities. Curiously, this is one of the main subjects in the study of humanities and social sciences. This is despite the UNESCO declaration (1953) that states that it is axiomatic that the best medium for learning and teaching is the mother tongue. I argue here that the exclusion of other languages in the education system, other than English, is some form of epistemic violence. The field of Digital Humanities (henceforth DH) is expanding across the globe. I demonstrate in this paper that DH is a growing scholarship that provides a bridge between the traditional practices of research, and technology driven research to scholars straddling quintessential humanities and social sciences approaches on the one hand, and modern digital methodologies, tools, and frameworks on the other, to support them in novel avenues of enquiry. DH is therefore a growing scholarship that is spurred by advances in computing and digital spheres. At the heart of DH discourse is inclusivity, diversity, and cultural sensitivity. These principles are necessary to achieve collaboration that is so essential to DH. However, there still exist vestiges of English bias as noted in (Fiormonte, 2015) “[…] arguments in favor of English as the lingua franca, and the misrepresentation of knowledge production and geopolitical imbalance […] continue to thrive.” I will argue that germane in the DH scholarship is a need to embrace multilingualism and diversity of cultures and identities. I will finally argue that a multilingual DH require the incorporation of epistemic perspectives, knowledge, and thinking from the Global South into the growing global knowledge economy from which everyone draws.
