Episode 4 (S7). The Power of Language
Description
In this episode, we explore how language shapes our thinking and influences the contexts we live in. Words have the power to foster inclusion, build bridges, or erect barriers. We discuss how intentional, inclusive language can promote belonging and empower communities, while negative language can exclude, discriminate, and undermine the progression of anti-oppressive practices. By examining how words construct meaning and reflect societal values, we emphasise the importance of greater mindfulness in everyday conversations.
Interested in actionable strategies for nurturing environments of respect and inclusion? Then this is the episode of you. From reframing biased narratives to promoting affirming dialogue, we unpack how language can be a transformative tool for fostering connection.
