This training manual is designed to help people to build on the strengths and avoid the pitfalls of the past.

DVD Resource Language and Discrimination: Beyond Political Correctness (Avenue Media Solutions, 2011) This DVD has been prepared as an aid to promoting equality by addressing the problems presented by discriminatory forms of language. It is recognised that language use can be a major source of discrimination, but unfortunately there has been a widespread tendency for the subject to be misunderstood. ‘Political correctness’, the simplistic idea that it is simply a matter of banning certain words and using others in their place, has probably done more harm than good. In this presentation leading author and equalities expert, Dr Neil Thompson, explains why being ‘PC’ is not the answer and that we need a much more sophisticated approach to tackling discriminatory forms of language. |
