[Linganth] Fwd: Late Invitation to CASCA/AAA panel!

[Elise Berman]

Dear all,

This is a last minute call for participants for a panel I am putting
together with Adrienne Lo on language, migration, and scale for the
AAA/CASCA conference in Vancouver. Cécile B. Vigouroux will be our
discussant. A brief description is below (and a more fuller version
attached). If you are interested, please let us know in the next day or so!

Sincerely,
Elise

This panel investigates how people and their linguistic practices get read
as intelligible in the context of migration and changing social and
environment climates. Work on language ideologies and linguistic
differentiation (Gal and Irvine 1995), has shown that how interpretations
of similarities and difference in linguistic processes serve to create
differences in people, and get reproduced along multiple different scales
(Lemke 1990, Wortham 2012). In turn, work on migration has shown how newly
arrived populations often get interpolated into preexisting racial
hierarchies, such as how new Latinx immigration in the south is often
getting molded into, rather than changing, the preexisting black/non-black
color line (Marrow 2011). We examine, in this panel, if and how this
process unfolds through language, how people and their linguistic practices
are created as similar or different, and why (Phillips 2016, Gal 2016a,
2016b).
