“How to tame a wild tongue” - language and power

Activity: Public Engagement and OutreachPublic Events

Description

Language is a carrier of culture and identity, but also the stuff from which we forge culture and identity. Language, then, is never neutral. So let’s look at how language empowers. We'll do some writing together, drawing on material produced by student teachers seeking to find their own voices in an ever more diverse Scotland. This session is planned for open-ended discussions, writing, sharing, and questioning.
