[Linganth] informal meeting at AAAs to discuss campaign rhetoric and teaching undergrad courses

[Kathryn Remlinger]

This is a great idea. If you do meet up, could someone take notes and post them here for those of us not able to attend AAA this year?

Thank you!
Kate

Hi everyone,
I'm new to this group. I am a political anthropologist by training and am currently teaching a linguistic anthropology course for the first time.  For the past couple of weeks we've been working through Jane Hill's book, "The Everyday Language of White Racism," which I think continues to offer very important insights and tools.
Wednesday was an incredibly emotional class as students made connections between her arguments and the (more explicit) hate speech that they have already been witnessing/experiencing in the election aftermath.
It would be great to meet up informally to talk about how others are teaching these topics.
Sincerely,
Jordan Levy

Greetings Linguistic and Media Anthropologists,

I’d like to ask if there will be any space at the AAAs to talk about how others are thinking about using material from the presidential campaign to teach undergrad courses like Language and Culture. If there is no designated time for such an exchange, I would like to ask if there are others who would like to meet informally to discuss this?

Thank you!
Kate
