Description
Language shapes our thinking and determines our politics, yet it can also limit our ability to express ourselves. In this thought-provoking book, Kübra Gümüşay explores how language affects our individuality and our relationships with others.
Gümüşay examines how language can both unite and divide us, and how we can use language to create space for greater ambiguity and individuality in our conversations. She argues that by challenging the way we think and talk, we can work towards a more inclusive and equitable society.
This book is a timely and important exploration of the power of language, and how it can be used to shape our world. Through her writing and activism, Gümüşay shows us that language is not just a tool, but a key to unlocking our full potential as individuals and as a community.
