Twisted Words: Intro 2 : From Negus to the N-Word: How Words Rewrite Identity


In Episode 1 of Unequal by Design, Connie Morris examines how language shapes identity, power, and perception — tracing how words once tied to royalty and honor were twisted into tools of shame and criminalization.
She explores the psychological, social, and spiritual impact of repeated labels, the media's role in normalizing stereotypes, and why changing our words is essential to changing our world.
