Great discussion tonight at our Sympatico SIG meeting where we chatted with @vishinair5 about the thought-provoking paper re standardised testing in SLT. Really interesting perspectives from colleagues in UK, Australia & NZ. Looking forward to the next one.

Amazing to see our article in print @JournalofCSCD. This collective community response was about highlighting failed peer review process, resisting academic censorship & our condemnation of accent modification. SLP as a field has a lot to answer for upholding a racist practice.

In this commentary, we maintain that accent modification, regardless of how it’s named or framed, cannot escape its role in a linguistic economy that capitalizes on the perceived lack of intelligibility of racialized speakers. pubs.asha.org/doi/10.1044/20…
