Errata Etnofoor HumourThere are several mistakes in two articles in our previous Humour issue we would like to rectify. *** In the article of Katja Antoine we published a wrong e-mail address and affiliation. She does not work at the University of California, Los Angeles as the article lists. Instead, she is owner of Inclusive Logic Consulting, LLC. Her e-mail address is not kat.ant@ucla.edu, but info@inclusivelogic.com. Moreover, two words were printed incorrectly: On page 35 the text reads, “We see its expressions in a variety of historically familiar ways, such as overt racism on school campuses with hostile campus publications, and graphic displays of blackface and noses.” The last word should be “nooses”. On page 36 the text reads, “By looking at the ‘edges’ of hegemony and how they are pushed, we can deepen our understanding of how racism – white supremacy and sexism – operate in the U.S. in the contemporary (non)-postracial moment…”. This should be “…we can deepen our understanding of how racism-white supremacy and sexism operate…”. Antoine links racism and white supremacy to emphasize that she sees them as two sides of the same coin (which the end note to that sentence explains). The formulation as was originally published, however, suggests that she defines racism as white supremacy and sexism. This is not the argument she makes in this article and the end note that explains her use of the linked term in effect appears to reference something that isn’t there. *** In the article of Said a quote was wrongly published (p. 101) as: “Furthermore, she states that: The tone of obvious pretence (boru) within the different contexts I discuss evokes two types of relationships: on the one hand a relationship of domination, aggression, and superiority; on the other hand a relationship of accommodation, conflict avoidance, and courtship and she emphasises that she understands the most common use of boruva at the local level as a general form of conflict avoidance (ibid.: 322).” This should be: “Furthermore, she states (ibid.: 322) that: <quote>The tone of obvious pretence (boru) within the different contexts I discuss evokes two types of relationships: on the one hand a relationship of domination, aggression, and superiority; on the other hand a relationship of accommodation, conflict avoidance, and courtship.<quote> She emphasises that she understands ‘the most common use of boruva at the local level as a general form of conflict avoidance’ (ibid.).” |
