Language of Violence

Tuesday, April 3 | 5:30–6:30 p.m. | Rand 308

This presentation examines the ways in which language reflects and sometimes perpetuates violence in our culture. By exploring common vernacular, phrases, slang terms, etc. participants will learn how insidious our language can be, and how to more carefully examine the way culture describes and speaks about intimacy, women, and sexual violence. Time will be spent specifically looking at different forms of media and everyday usage of words. RSVP here.
