Oxford Languages and Harvard University’s Hutchins Center for African &
African American Research have partnered for a three-year research project,
whose aim is to compile the Oxford Dictionary of African American English
(ODAAE).

The project is spearheaded by Professor Henry Louis Gates, Jr.
(Editor-in-Chief), Director of the Center and Alphonse Fletcher University
Professor at Harvard, and is funded in part by grants from the Mellon and
Wagner Foundations.

Join some project team members for a panel discussion covering:
- Project overview and aims
- Where we are now
- Why we are compiling ODAAE
- The socio-linguistic importance of African American English
- Q&A – bring your questions to the panellists or send them in advance to
oed.uk at oup.com
