data. It allows items to be retrievable. To create metadata we need to follow a controlled vocabulary, which are standardized groups of words and phrases used to describe information. However, controlled vocabularies are political, so cataloging with a political intention challenge us to take a stance. We think of controlling language as a political responsibility. We are working on a thesaurus for feminist linguists, which implies deciding how to organize the knowledge on feminist linguistics.
[NA] Elegimos lenguaje inclusivo como descriptor por ser el término más extendido para nombrar las estrategias lingüísticas y discursivas desarrolladas por las feministas y la comunidad LGBT para luchar por sus derechos. El término lenguaje inclusivo ha sido problematizado en diversas ocasiones particularmente por enfocarse en la idea de incluir; además, se han problematizado varios de los diferentes sinónimos y cuasi sinónimos que aparecen en [UP]. Es estudiado por diversas disciplinas y desde distintas perspectivas.

• Such VR digital artifact can be used for narrative analysis on its own • It can also be used as a ‘virtual site’ for ethnographic projects for students, such as used in Anthropology 1001 class at CUNY • Using guidelines from Pr. Ken Guest’s class (Baruch College) students can use the a ‘blank’ version of VR experience (https://wvr.li/ypwuk1) to write a paper on their visit to the site that would include: ❏ Description of the place ❏ Who are the contributors ❏ Usage of concepts from the class ❏ Analysis of selected scribblings from the wall that reveal specific systems of power (e.g. systems of oppression, sexuality/romantic life, religion, etc.)

Students were assigned a short fantastic story. They were responsible to provide a lesson plan and teach the class (under the guidance of the professor). Their lesson plan was also used toward the creation of a pedagogical edition of the text. Students were provided a model of a pedagogical edition of their text. They were responsible of the introduction of the author, the transcription of the text, footnotes, banks of questions, and bibliography. We produced an anthology of the Spanish Fantastic. Project/Objectives What is the Fantastic? During the first couple of weeks, the instructor provided a theoretical and historical background of the Spanish Fantastic in the 19th Century. The instructor modeled how to teach a text and how to produce a pedagogical edition. How to teach literature? How to create editions for publication?

In 60% of the cases online perpetrators who had carried out the threats also stalked the respondents online. 3 It is important to remember if you become a victim you are not alone!

They secondarily write most like their gender, rather than their sex assigned at birth Closer to 0, the more similar, with 0 being the same.

policy and scholarly debates. • Interchangeably used with similar terms like nativism, autochthony, ethnocentrism (Crush, et al., 2009) • Some consider it to be intense dislike, hatred or fear of others (Nyamnjoh, 2006) • For the purpose of this presentation, I will adopt the International Organization for Migration (IOM) definition of xenophobia as the “attitudes, prejudices and behavior that reject, exclude and often vilify persons based on the perception that they are outsiders or foreigners to the community, society or national identity” (IOM, 2001:2).
Center for Migration and Society (ACMS): • Violence against foreign nationals is in most cases organized and led by local groups and individuals attempting to claim or consolidate power and authority to further political and economic interests. • While xenophobic acts appear to be direct contests about physical space, the intersectionality of other factors informing the explosion of xenophobia such as cultural, gender, racial and ethnic elements need also to be considered. • Violence against outsiders is just “politics by other means” • Its instrumental motives are located in local political economy and micro-political processes (see Landau, et al., 2009 and Misago, 2011).
