After watching the video clips and discussing the duality between language and stereotyping, write a one page reflection on how you perceive yourself in regards to the language you use. Address the following questions:
-Are you aware of the amount of slang you use in a day?
-Do you speak differently to your teachers than your friends? Why do you think you do this?
-Are you in control of how you communicate or are you a product of your environment?
