Question: What is the negative effects of racist and sexist languages
with respect to perception?
Answer: Not only do they harm the person who was referred to, but also
do they harm society. Our culture value (I am not sure about Kaz's
culture) and society are shaped by our language. Racist and sexist
languages suggest that some people are less important than other people.
The more languages are allowed to continue, the more stereotype and
other inaccurate judgments are perpetuated. You can not change cultural
perception without changing language. Language has to change; language
is responsible for how the culture shapes. (Bonnie)
I hope it helps you. This is how they teach people to be international
/intercultural rather than being American. America (the USA) just
happened to be a large land where many kinds of people happened to live.
