Abstract:In the original publication of this article (Suhr-Sytsma 2022), the character of Colonel Silas Usenetok in Uwem Akpan's novella Say You're One of Them was described as speaking with a "Delta accent" (p. 679). The character's accent should more accurately be characterized as an "Old Cross River accent."The author apologizes for this error.
