CRES 135: Language and Race
University of California, Santa Cruz
Many of us are probably aware that people of different ethnic or racial backgrounds may speak differently, but most of us probably do not know that all varieties of English are equally ''grammatical.'' And while some of us are probably aware of the fact that racial and ethnic categories are ''constructed,'' most of us have probably not considered the ways in which language use figures in the construction of ethnic and/or racial identity. Course introduces a number of racialized linguistic varieties and their intersections with other identity categories (gender, sexuality, socio-economic class), as well as emergent new scholarship on language and racialization.
