[Linganth] CaMP virtual reading group

[Ilana Gershon]

Dear Colleagues,
The CaMP virtual reading group is starting again -- we meet virtually on 
the last Friday of most months in the US academic year.
We will meet on Zoom from 1-2 pm EST -- so people in California, Chile, 
Helsinki and Turkey can attend (if they have a good enough
wifi connection at that time).

We will talk with the author of a recently published book in linguistic 
anthropology, media anthropology and performance studies
for an hour.   These are warm, engaging and far-ranging conversations, 
and for the past four years have often been the intellectual
high point of my month.

I will circulate an announcement and a link to a chapter two weeks in 
advance on this listserv -- unless there are any objections.

We will be chatting with Jennifer Delfino in two weeks, discussing her 
new book, Speaking of Race: Language, Identity, and Schooling Among 
African American Children.

She has asked us to read chapter 6.  Please read as much as you can, but 
do feel free to join us even if you haven't managed to read everything.



The readings can be found here:
