I sat down with J.D. Gray, the host of ASHA's podcast series ASHA Voices, and colleague Dr. Dionna Latimer-Hearn to talk about language and identity in African American English-speakers.
The podcast episode, Language and Identity - Moving Away from a Deficit Perspective on African American English, resonated with many listeners,
and this is before the 2020 protests began.
Take a listen to understand how the way we speak is embedded in our identity.
