The recent New York Times magazine article on linguistic relativity is
generating internet comment this week. Mindful of Bill Leap's and others'
insightful comments on this listserv about doing our own PR work, I put
together a little bibliographic post for the SLA website as a resource. I've
also sent the links to the article and SLA posting to the AAA P.R. officer,
who has asked for information on members in the news.

This piece is just a start; I'm sure many of you have material and
perspectives to add, which will be welcome.

All best wishes, 
Kit
