Episode 11: IT'S TROUBLING: THE LANGUAGE PRIVILEGE

Human beings are hardwired to communicate ideas, share stories and spread beliefs to hold our community together. This distinct power is what some of us take for granted - the ability to use language or sometimes change it according to our needs. We hold firmly that it is what makes us humans special, and it really is. However, possessing this kind of power doesn't mean the learning process will always be child's play. The struggle is real, but 'collective' in essence.

Ready for the digging? Deep down the surface is what feels like impossible to break through.
