Abstract<br>
Often, cases of linguistic injustice are riddled with epistemic injustices,<br>
and thus such cases not only require linguistic justice but also epistemic<br>
forms of redress. In my view, these types of instances cannot solely be<br>
addressed through standard methods for linguistic justice but also require<br>
epistemic reparations. Therefore, in this talk, I argue for two points:<br>
first, that this is because part of what is unjust in these cases is that<br>
there is linguicism and epistemic harms that take place (or linguistic<br>
epistemic injustice, Catala 2022). Second, that in such cases of injustice,<br>
epistemic redress is necessary. To do this, I apply the epistemic injustice<br>
framework to three cases of linguistic injustice in South Africa to capture<br>
what is unjust and further problematize standard methods for linguistic<br>
justice. Although I appeal to illustrations from South Africa for this<br>
talk, the developments here have promising insights beyond the continent.<br>
This research takes into account the interests of scholars across<br>
disciplines concerned with linguistic (in)justice, language loss,<br>
indigenous language preservation, and epistemic injustice. It also<br>
contributes to recent work on epistemic reparations by Jennifer Lackey<br>
(2022) and the growing scholarship on this topic. I will proceed as follows<br>
in this talk: I begin by defining linguistic injustice and introducing key<br>
concepts from epistemic injustice. Thereafter, I illustrate three cases of<br>
linguistic injustice in South Africa, and based on these cases, I pin down<br>
the linguistic problem and the epistemic harm in each case. Following this<br>
discussion, I introduce and critique the extant approach from standard<br>
theories of linguistic justice. Finally, I argue that epistemic forms of<br>
redress may better help address issues of linguistic injustice where there<br>
are epistemic harms identified and use the epistemic reparations approach<br>
for each case.<br>
<br>
Short Bio<br>
Nomaswazi <span class="gmail-il">Kubeka</span> is a doctoral candidate at the University of<br>
Johannesburg’s (UJ) Philosophy Department, recipient of the ACEPS PhD<br>
research scholarship, and previous recipient of the Indigenous Languages in<br>
Philosophy MA scholarship (2020-2021). She holds a BA in Politics,<br>
Philosophy, and Economics from UJ where she also obtained her Honours and<br>
Master’s qualifications. Her Honours research focused on the Metaethics of<br>
Ubuntu and her Master’s (which she obtained with distinction) on African<br>
Indigenous Languages and Epistemic Oppression. Her PhD research is titled<br>
“Linguistic Justice and Epistemic Redress”. It is an interdisciplinary<br>
study that draws on three different branches of philosophy, namely the<br>
philosophy of language, epistemic (in)justice and epistemic oppression, and<br>
African philosophy. This research aims to bring to light the value and<br>
importance of linguistic redress for indigenous languages, indigenous<br>
knowledge systems, and groups.<br>
