This course introduces linguistic diversity, including regional, cultural, and stylistic variation within a single language, code-switching in bilingual communities, and colonial, immigrant, Creole, indigenous, and sign languages. It also explores the role of language in supporting various types of social identity (e.g., age, gender, social class, race, ethnicity) as well as power structures that enable discrimination against less powerful groups.
