- Words that Hurt: List of the words we are using. State a common slur that they are popularly used or context of which they are used in. Explain what the words have come to mean. Explain what the true definition of what the words mean. “That’s so Gay”“Stop being a Fag”“That’s Retarded”
- Ideological beliefAll these words have the potential to harm others if used in any way. It all depends on how they are used in daily context.These words are commonly over used in jest to others that you know.Through this over use the definitions have changed and have become socially acceptable. Through over use they have loss their weight, history and true rhetorical meaning. We intend to fight against the use of hurtful language by comabting the common ideological belief that language does not have true power
