Paul
While I understand that your strategy of "naming and
shaming" is part of a political project which you are fully committed
to, and while I, and I am sure many others, fully welcome the
excellent debate you have stimulated through raising issues
concerning the political of language with the Academy, there is no
getting around the fact that these Naming and Shaming emails accusing
individuals of racism are libellous.
It is incumbant upon me then, as the List Administrator for Crit-
Geog-Forum, to ask to refrain from any further libellous commentary.
If legal action is taken by any one of the individuals "shamed" so
far in your emails, the list could potentially be shut down by the
service provider. This is not in the collective interest of the
members of this list.
Sincerely
Denis Linehan
CGF List Administrator 1998
