Dear Colleagues,

The Language and Social Justice Committee (LSJ) is seeking two new members to join the core committee for the three-year-term starting in January 2021. The LSJ is a standing committee of the Society for Linguistic Anthropology dedicated to increasing awareness of and responding to language-related injustice. Core members work to organize the efforts of committee members and serve three-year terms to provide a strong institutional memory in the core group. New core committee members will become co-chairs in the their year on the core committee.

If you are interested, please send a short email (300 words) expressing your interest to current co-chairs Dominika Baran (dominika.baran at duke.edu<mailto:dominika.baran at duke.edu>) or Suzanne García-Mateus (sgmateus at csumb.edu<mailto:sgmateus at csumb.edu>) by November 30, 2020. In your statement of interest, please include what issues you are particularly interested in, and what experience you have in advocating for language-related injustices. We encourage BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, & (other) people of color) scholars to apply. We also encourage applicants at all career stages and with any or no institutional affiliation.

Please feel free to share this call with colleagues who you think might be interested.

Best,

Dominika Baran & the LSJ core committee
