Description

Code-switching isn’t just a habit; it’s a response to racial power. In this episode, we call out the denial of the “white voice,” explore how Black folks are pushed to alter their language for safety and survival, and argue that fighting for linguistic freedom is fighting for liberation itself.


. This episode argues that language is not neutral—it’s a battleground. And choosing to speak in your own voice is a revolutionary stance.
