22. All Change Is Linguistic
Update: 2024-05-08
Description
All change is linguistic.
It’s something that I frequently remind people of, but what do I really mean when I say that?
The words we use have meanings. Changes in our language reflect the deeper cultural shifts at play and help us dismantle barriers and promote understanding.
In this episode, I want to take a moment to dig into how linguistic changes bring us closer to our goal of more equitable, accessible, and supportive learning environments.
