Ep. 114. The Glossary Project
Update: 2025-10-15
Description
Sharing a language does not always mean sharing meaning. That became clear to researcher William Wical when he and community organizer Tyrique Glasgow were reviewing interviews Wical had done of Black men who'd been involved in a hospital-based violence intervention program. On this episode of Policy Outsider, we learn about how a confusion of meaning resulted in a new endeavor: the Glossary Project. The episode explores Wical and Glasgow's efforts to get academics, practitioners, victims of gun violence, and the media all speaking the same culturally competent language.
