Stale Language (Episode 80)
Manage episode 324670518 series 3290884
Language changes quickly, and some of the language that has been used in DEI work for years, has now been called outdated. It can be hard to keep up, but maintaining a critical lens on your own language, as well as the language of those around you is important to do justice to underrepresented communities - to which this language is often directed. How do we know where we're at? How do we know when we're outdated? This week on the show, Shaunna and Lisa discuss stale language and the ways we can work towards using more intentional language that represents inclusivity. Using phrases and words like authenticity, tolerance, safe space and civility as examples, Shaunna and Lisa dissect the problems with this language - giving listeners a reference point for how to critically analyze their own word choices.
