<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Friends,<br>
Thanks for all of the suggestions. I would like to make two
points.<br>
<br>
First, let's pool information about the ban and what happens in
the wake of its revelation. I am trying to get touch with people
who work at the CDC to see if I can learn more. A number of us
might have friends or relatives who could provide information,
probably anonymously. Communication in public health in general
and the CDC specifically essentially follows military-style
hierarchical controls, which is part of what makes the ban so
significant, so this sort of diffuse, informal ethnographic
approach is what is most likely to pay off. <br>
<br>
Second, this situation invites us to look beyond the usual
division of labor between linguistic and medical anthropology to
see ways that ideologies and practices associated with what are
constructed as "language" and "communication" are deeply entangled
with those associated with "medicine" and "health." This nexus,
which I referred to as biomediatization in a book with media
scholar Daniel Hallin, includes but also goes much deeper than
either banning these particular lexical items or fetishizing
others (like 'preparedness' or 'sustainability'). In order to get
a handle on this situation and to see what it represents in the
day-to-day work of the CDC (and possibly state and local public
health agencies), we need to scrutinize more broadly how
mediatization and the regimentation of what is constructed as
"communication" shape rather than simply reflect what counts as
health and illness. These issues are deeply tied into those
recently analyzed by anthropologists who look at issues of
security.<br>
Best,<br>

They had a presentation at the recent AAA meeting about
how they have been tracking web changes to EPA resources
including side-by-side language analysis of webpages under
Obama and Trump. Here is a blog post written for Cultural

</div>
<div>They might be a great resource for considering how
you could develop a similar program for the CDC and NIH
with relation to the "banned words." Tracking these
changes systematically also provides power in being able
to quantitatively show how organizations are changing
messaging and resources via language shifts and what
that might mean for health and funding. For example,
check out this report by EDGI that shows how they made
subtle language changes such as largely removing the
word "carbon" from EPA resources and swapping in
alternative language: <a

Politico, and the Hill among others. </div>

of “transgender” is
obviously discriminatory.
The replacement of
“evidence-based” with some
phrase about science and
community is more opaquely
problematic. A core
anthropological critique of
contemporary public/ global
health is that health
interventions prioritize
“data-driven” interventions
to the exclusion of
cultural/ community
perspectives. Addressing
this critique is clearly NOT
the intent of this
censorship, but any op-ed or
statement writers need to be
cognizant of this
anthropological critique
even as they/we call out the
many problems with the word
banning (whether it is
self-censorship or
other-censorship).</p>

style="color:#1f497d">I’m interested in watching the information come
out on this.
At this point,
my sense is
that what may
have happened
is some
bureaucrats,
as they
prepare their
budget
request, have
decided that
if they avoid
these words
they will be
more likely to
get funded,
and if they
have these
words in their
budget they’ll
be less likely
to get funded.
So it’s a
pre-emptive
sort of thing,
not a
prohibition
coming from
the
administration
but rather a
bureaucratic
strategy to
deal with
(probably
quite
accurate)
anticipation
of the
administration’s
response.</span></p>

style="color:#1f497d">So this may be an effort to get things funded by
re-labelling
them without
changes in
content. I
think, though,
that it is
that this
strategy will
backfire, as
the labels
re-shape the
contents and
everyone
struggles in
the dark to
figure out
what they are
supposed to be
doing. But how
do you get
bureaucrats to
avoid
“bureaucratic
weasel-wording”?</span></p>

style="color:#1f497d">And if we point out the changed wording and it
results in the
administration
and the
legislature
cutting the
funding for
the programs,
where does
that get us?
Not that
weasel-wording
is a good
thing, but I’m
not sure
pointing it
out solves the
fundamental
problem.
Maybe,
instead,
publicize the
positive
results of
programs that
use these
words, using
the words in
the titles?
Ideally,
successes in
Republican-leaning
areas if
possible?</span></p>

be to
publicize
every document
