[Linganth] Research on anti-Black discourses/language in Eastern Europe

[Elizabeth Peacock]

Here are some sources your student might be interested in. (As a cultural and linguistic anthropologist of Ukraine since 2003, I would take Lori Donath's suggestions with a heavy handful of salt...)

On race:
Adriana Helbig.

Subject: [Linganth] Research on anti-Black discourses/language in Eastern Europe


Hello linganth folks,


I have an undergraduate student who wants to do a (short) research paper on anti-Black discourses/language in Eastern Europe. She is specifically interested in analyzing these discourses in Ukraine, given recent events. Does anyone have suggestions for articles or books that would help her frame what is going on in Ukraine, or is anyone currently working on this very recent issue?


Thanks!


Jen
