 Linguistic discrimination exists because proper English or the white standardized spoken variety is the default expected variety across dominant block institutions. Deviations from that default result in unequal unfair and sometimes even violent and fatal outcomes. Language is more than sound. It's usage across modalities. And when we think about discrimination in writing, it can be seen as the effects of stereotypes on word choice. In print media, I found the white gaze affecting the groups of words used to describe people of color. I did machine learning to investigate 108 years of sports journalism and showed that athletes of color are described in animalistic terms, while whites are described in skill based terms. Using this information my algorithm can predict the race of an athlete with 98% accuracy based on word counts alone. Years after redlining was made illegal, we see covert segregation in traditionally redlined housing districts. My study which audited 90 properties in my hometown of Knoxville, Tennessee, showed that this discrimination starts from the first phone call. Not only did I find that black voices are perceived as ignorant and untrustworthy, but also that speakers of nonstandard dialects are generally more likely to experience steering, which is explicitly illegal under the Fair Housing Act. This finding has helped me advocate for discrimination on the basis of voice to be included in our policies and laws, which currently require physical proximity as a prerequisite for identity based discrimination cases. Finally, my dissertation work is underway and seeks to understand the sociolinguistic labor that black professionals endure when they are encouraged or required to assimilate to white standardized spoken English. Libby Green tells us, quote, we regularly demand of people that they suppress or deny the most effective way they have of situating themselves socially in the world, their language, end quote. A series of interviews will begin to describe the cost of lifelong code switching and perceptual experiments will determine if in the presence of listener stereotypes code switching is even necessary for black people. Examining listener positionality will aid my field in developing pathways towards combating dangerous language ideologies where they live in the minds of individuals. All of this work combines into my research program, which is naming and disabling anti black linguistic racism across institutions and for various publics. Thank you.
