518    Originally produced by The Center for New American Media 
       in 1988. 
520    Southerners talk too slowly. New Yorkers are rude. New 
       Englanders don't say much at all. Anybody who lives in the
       U.S. knows the clichés about how people in the various 
       parts of the country handle the English language. American
       tongues is the first documentary to explore the impact of 
       these linguistic attitudes in a fresh and exciting manner.
       For over ten years American tongues has entertained and 
       educated audiences from the high school level on up. It is
       in use in thousands of colleges, universities, corporate 
       training offices, military installations, TESL classes, 
       and other institutions. American tongues has been an 
       enormously useful teaching tool for helping students and 
       workers hear examples of regional speech and attitudes and
       relate them to their own lives. Some of the points 
       included in American tongues:-profiles of a number of 
       linguistic communities, including the remarkable relic 
       area of Tangier Island, Virginia -A survey of American 
       linguistic prejudice (regional, social, racial) -The role 
       of the mass media in fostering stereotypes -Opinions and 
       examples of Black English (Ebonics) -How accents in one 
       locale can differ by social class Principal Advisors: 
       Frederic G.  Cassidy,Chief Editor; Dictionary of American 
       regional English (DARE); Walt Wolfram,University of North 
       Carolina at Raleigh; Raven McDavid,University of Chicago. 
       American tongues was supported by grants from the National
       Endowment for the Humanities and SWAMP, the Southwestern 
       Alternative Media Project. A production of The Center for 
       New American Media, New York. Produced and Directed by
