Looking for AAA panel

[Kara Becker]

Hello,

I know I am bit late in looking for a panel, but I thought I'd try the list
to see if there were any panels that still had openings, and where my
research topic would be appropriate. I am a sociolinguistic from NYU
currently working on my dissertation on the Lower East Side of Manhattan.
The research is based on ethnography and recorded oral history interviews.
My interests are in the social construction of place identity, recursivity,
ethnicity, the use of regional dialects features to project identifications,
and social/community contact and how that conflict is mediated through talk.
If any of this might work for a panel that still needs papers, please feel
free to contact me and I can send you a more formal abstract.

Thanks so much,
