Ruckus Roundtable: Linguistics of Gender Expression
HGHW.ORG/ROUNDTABLE
Tuesday, March 16 - 5pm PT/8pm PT
Gender is a social construct. A big part of this is the language that causes harm by upholding sexism & the gender binary (boys/girls, men/women). Researchers cite language as a reflection of the power imbalances of society. How has language impacted your gender identity? How are you navigating society or building culture with words? Join us for a conversation on the limitations & evolution of words. Ruckus Roundtables are a series of online conversations specifically designed for middle-school & up, but all ages are welcome. Set up the computer at the dinner table, sign on with a friend, or join us however makes sense for you!
