However, regionally influenced ethnic varieties may not always manifest differences in traditional variationist-based studies of diagnostic phonological and morphosyntactic variables. This study examines how members of an adolescent friendship group in the small black Appalachian community of Texana, North Carolina, use lexical items and meta-commentary on the use of these items when their phonological and morphological variables converge. Since most Texana residents maintain regional speech patterns, we argue that lexical items may serve a significant indexical function in the social construction of ethnicity in this community. Our data suggest that lexical items may take on marked significance as symbolic vehicles through which speakers assert and negotiate their ethnic identity.}, number={1}, journal={AMERICAN SPEECH}, author={Childs, B and Mallinson, C}, year={2006}, pages={3–30} }

Such categorizations sometimes surface in the form of racial, ethnic, or other stereotypes. But although much literature describes and/or tests the cognitive nature of stereotyping and categorization, less investigates how stereotypes and categories are formed in casual interaction, through casual discourse. This article analyzes data from 15 in-depth, semi-structured interviews with restaurant servers to investigate how they categorize customers by drawing on racial stereotypes and stereotypes related to class and/or cultural capital to produce two types of discriminatory discourse: ‘racetalk’ and what we term ‘regiontalk’. Our analyses suggest potential differences in the servers’ processes of categorization according to patron type, which we interpret with regard to the larger context of racism and classism in contemporary U.S. society.}, number={6}, journal={DISCOURSE & SOCIETY}, author={Mallinson, C and Brewster, ZW}, year={2005}, month={Nov}, pages={787–807} }

enclave communities has been instrumental in reformulating the 
historical reconstruction of earlier African American English 
and the current trajectory of language change in African American 
Vernacular English (AAVE). This case study examines a unique 
enclave sociolinguistic situation – a small, long-term, 
isolated bi-ethnic enclave community in the mountains of western 
North Carolina – to further understanding of the role 
of localized dialect accommodation and ethnolinguistic 
distinctiveness in the historical development of African American 
English. The examination of a set of diagnostic phonological 
and morphosyntactic variables for several of the remaining African 
Americans in this community supports the conclusion that earlier 
African American English largely accommodated local dialects 
while maintaining a subtle, distinctive ethnolinguistic divide. 
However, unlike the situation in some other African American 
communities, there is no current movement toward an AAVE external 
norm for the lone isolated African American teenager; rather, 
there is increasing accommodation to the local dialect. 
Contact-based, identity-based, and ideologically based explanations 
are appealed to in describing the past and present direction 
of change for the African Americans in this receding community.}, number={5}, journal={LANGUAGE IN SOCIETY}, author={Mallinson, C and Wolfram, W}, year={2002}, month={Nov}, pages={743–775} }
