Dear all,

As part of the ERASMUS+ project “Counteracting accent dIscrimination pRactiCes in Education” (https://www.circe-project.eu/), we will investigate attitudes to accents of English and accents of several other European languages through accent perception studies. At the end of the project, all materials will be made available to the research community and we invite other researchers to use them.

We are currently looking for speakers of *African American English* who are willing to record themselves reading a very short (one paragraph) reading passage. The speakers should be between 18 and 25 years of age (approximately).

Speakers will be compensated with 20 Euros / approximately $ 21. We would be very grateful if you could forward this information to your students or anyone else who you think might be willing to help us and donate a recording of their voice for this research. Anyone interested should please contact us at [email protected].

Best wishes,
Philipp
