  • A Nigger in the Woodpile? a Racist Incident on a South African University Campus
    Journal of Languages and Culture Vol. 2(3), pp. 39-49, March 2011 Available online at http://www.academicjournals.org/jlc ISSN 2141-6540 ©2011 Academic Journals Full Length Research Paper A nigger in the woodpile? A racist incident on a South African University campus Vivian Anne de Klerk Rhodes University, Grahamstown, South Africa. E-mail: [email protected]. Tel: +27(0)466038181. Accepted 4 February, 2011 This case study starts by providing a brief background description of the shock value of swearwords and derogatory terms before moving to a more focused discussion of the social and psycholinguistic features associated with their use. After a brief overview of the history of highly-charged taboo words referring to black African people in South Africa, the paper then discusses the repercussions of a recent and much- publicised racist incident on a South African campus in which the word ‘nigger’ was used by a white student against a black staff member and his family. Finally, some suggestions are made regarding directions for future research. Key words: Nigger, taboo, racism, expletives, South Africa. INTRODUCTION Expletives are exclamatory words or phrases that are those whose sensibilities are offended. This paper is a short obscene or profane (including homophobic ethnic and racial case study, set in a South African University context, in which slurs), and cursing is the deliberate utterance of these a racist term of abuse was uttered by a white student with the emotionally powerful and offensive words in order to be intention of expressing disparagement towards a black insulting, rude or vulgar.

The language used to enshrine the protection varies, with “freedom of expression” the most common contemporary canonical formulation, but in one way or another it is now routine for open societies to guarantee a moderately wide range of communicative freedoms.2 Moreover, the protection is uniformly of a type that can be characterized as “constitutional,” in that the principles of freedom of freedom of expression impose entrenched second order constraints not merely upon pernicious attempts to control communication, and not even merely upon well- intentioned but misguided attempts to control communication, but also, and most importantly, upon actually well-designed and genuinely efficacious attempts to control speech and the press in the service of important first order policy preferences. With few exceptions, it is today 1Frank Stanton Professor of the First Amendment, John F.

This thesis aims to explore the creation of an automated system to identify tweets and tweeters, and at the same time gain a theoretical understanding of the tweets. To do this a mixed methods approach was employed: ma- chine learning was utilised to identify racist tweets and tweeters, and grounded theory and other qualitative techniques were used to gain an understanding of the tweets’ content.

  • Expanding Perceptions of Self and Other Through Study Abroad
    EXPANDING PERCEPTIONS OF SELF AND OTHER THROUGH STUDY ABROAD DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for The Degree Doctor of Philosophy in The Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Benjamin McKay Williams, M.A. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2006 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Associate Professor Ada Demb, Adviser Associate Professor Peter Demerath ______________________________ Assistant Professor Michele Welkener Adviser College of Education Copyright by Benjamin McKay Williams 2006 ii ABSTRACT This dissertation explored the ways in which White, African American and Biracial American undergraduate and graduate students made meaning of race and other aspects of identity. Using a constructivist grounded methodology this study revealed a new way to conceptualize the processes by which students’ perceptions of self and other were shaped through a course on the culture and society of Southern Africa and by studying abroad on a short-term program to that region: the dynamics of integrating lenses. In the U.S. classroom, students moved from ignorance about the continent of Africa and the region of Southern Africa to an initial understanding. Through the combined course and study abroad program, the White undergraduate students’ unexamined White privilege was surfaced and examined. At the same time, Black students’ pride in being Black and their connection to their histories was deepened. Their assumptions about race and identification with Africa were also broadened. The result of the group cohesiveness and support was that White and Black students who had never had friends of the “other” race expanded their relationships to incorporate new people who they may never have interacted with otherwise.
