The Committee on Language and Social Justice will be having its annual
meeting Wed, Nov 14, from 4:30-6:00, Sunset Room, Hilton. Come join us as
we discuss efforts to address the term "illegal immigrant" in the media;
attempts to ensure that the US Census Bureau continues to collect
information on language use; and a new public education initiative on
immigration and language.If you are interested in ways that linguistic
anthropologists can influence public discourse on language, this is a great
group to join.
Check out the new teaching website our committee put together with
materials you can use in your classes:
