Research Bites: Sharese King
Join us for a Research Bites conversation with Professor Sharese King! Sharese King is the Neubauer Family Assistant Professor of Linguistics at the University of Chicago who received her PhD in 2018 from Stanford University. Her previous research has drawn on phonetic, ethnographic, and experimental techniques to explore how African Americans' speech is constructed and racialized and the implications for racialized voices within the judicial system in the United States. King is an expert on various topics in the study of African American Language including race and place, identity, and linguistic bias. King's work has been published in venues such as American Speech, the Journal of Sociolinguistics, Language, and Nature.
