Subject: Inquiry for examples of linguistic discrimination



I'm forwarding an inquiry re examples of linguistic discrimination by

a student here at the University of Arizona, which she intended to

distribute to ADS-L, but directed to me. I guess she must be on the

list, but in replying you might CC: or also address directly to her just

in case.

Hi. I'm an undergrad at the UofA who is interested in linguistic

discrimination. My mother, who grew up in New Orleans, was urged to take

a "speech correction" class at LSU so that she'd be better received in the

rest of the country. Do you know if counselors still suggest these things,

and do these classes still exist? Thanks for any input.

the best idea!)
