Abstract

Although the US South has experienced a significant Latinx demographic shift in recent decades, we still know little about the sociolinguistic implications of these changes. In their talk, Stephen Fafulas and Matt Van Hoose consider how Spanish speakers’ language practices and patterns—such as code-switching and discourse markers—can be said to constitute the voice of Spanish-speaking communities in both north Mississippi and in eastern North Carolina.

Stephen Fafulas is assistant professor of Spanish at the University of Mississippi. Matthew J. Van Hoose is executive director of academic engagement at Howard Community College in Columbia, Maryland.
